Pseudogene formation in ‘Candidatus Steffania adelgidicola'. The formation of pseudogenes (light grey boxes) in the ‘Candidatus S. adelgidicola' genome can be observed in syntenic regions with E. coli K-12 substr. MG1655. It must be noted that the genome region shown in the lower panel is also synthenic with S. glossinidius, ‘Candidatus Blochmannia pennsylvanicus' and other Gammaproteobacteria but not with Buchnera. The number of stop codons (star symbol) and frameshifts (black arrow) are noted. The rnhB gene is truncated at the 5′ end.
