Figure 2. Sequence diversity across the 16S rRNA gene and cpn60 UT.

Figure 2

Median percent identity of each of sequence to its nearest neighbour among the 16S rRNA cpn60 UT sequences from 1,394 bacterial genomes. Median percent identity was calculated for each 120 bp window along the length of the targets and identity values are plotted for the midpoint of each window. Due to target length variation, particularly among 16S rRNA genes, data is shown for windows for which at least 95% of the genomes could be included.
