Presence and absence of selected genomic islands in V. cholerae O139 genome assemblies.
| Sample Name | VSP-1 (VC_0174-VC_0186) | VSP-2 (VC_0489-VC_0517) | VPI-1 (VC_0809-VC_0848) | VPI-2 (VC_1757-VC_1810) | CTXφ (VC_1451-VC_1465) | SXT (VC_0659 insertion) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 48853_F01 | Absent | Absent | Partially present (VC_0809-VC_0816; deletion of VC_0817-VC_0848) | Absent | Absent | 64% match to ICEVchInd4 |
| 48853_G01 | Present, and duplication of VC_0175–0186 on chr2 | Present | Present | Deletion of VC_1761–1787 | Present, in more than one copy | 100% match to ICEVchInd4 |
| 48853_H01 | Present, and duplication of VC_0175–0186 on chr2 | Present | Present | Deletion of VC_1761–1787 | Present, in more than one copy | 100% match to ICEVchInd4 |
| 48853_A02 | Present, and duplication of VC_0175–0186 on chr2 | Present | Present | Deletion of VC_1761–1787 | Present, in more than one copy | 100% match to ICEVchInd4 |
Similarity percentages were obtained by comparing SXT element sequences to that of ICEVchInd4 using BLASTn. chr2 = chromosome 2.
