^†Position on the M. pneumoniae M129 genome sequence (GenBank accession code U00089).

^‡Based on comparison of 20 complete genome sequences except for Mpn16, which is based on the previous report [15].

^§Based on typing of 41 isolates and excluding minor variants in heterogeneous loci (Supplementary Table 10).

^¶Reported by Degrange et al. [15].

gyrB: DNA gyrase subunit B; hsdS: Type 1 restriction enzyme S subunit; UTR: Untranslated region;YtxK: Adenine-specific methyltransferase.
