Fig. 2.
Ortholog content for the LOS gene cluster for thermophilic and non-thermophilic species other than C. jejuni subsp. jejuni and C. coli. Species abbreviations are as follows: cla=C. lari, cup=C. upsaliensis, rec=C. rectus, sho=C. showae, con=C. concisus, cur=C. curvus, fet=C. fetus subsp. fetus. Arrows represent orthologs, and numbers are ortholog ID numbers (see Table S1 for associated annotations). Grey arrows: with the exception of C. hominis and C. gracilis (see text for discussion), orthologs seen in all species. Blue arrows: ortholog is seen in all thermophilic species and two non-thermophilic species (C. curvus and C. hominis). Brown arrows: orthologs seen in all non-thermophilic species except C. hominis and C. gracilis. Purple arrows: dispensable non-thermophilic orthologs, none of which are seen in the thermophilic species. For C. upsaliensis, the pink and orange arrows show three dispensable orthologs shared with other thermophilic species. Pink orthologs occurred in the LOS of other species and the orange ortholog occurred in the CPS of other species. For reference, ortholog 25=waaC and ortholog 23=waaF.
