Table 1. Pangenome results of 511 disease-associated B. pseudomallei strains.

Pangenome breakdown	Classification	Number of genes	Percent of pangenome (%)
Core genes	(99% < = strains < = 100%)	4,496	22.49
Soft core genes	(95% < = strains < 99%)	517	2.59
Shell genes	(15% < = strains < 95%)	965	4.83
Cloud genes	(0% < = strains < 15%)	14,013	70.10
Total pangenome	(0% < = strains < = 100%)	19,991	100

The pangenome is subdivided into the core (found in every strain), soft shell core (found in 95–99% of strains), shell (found in 15–95% of strains), and cloud (found in 0–15% of strains) genes. The total number of genes is shown, along with the percentage of total pangenome.
