Comparative genomics support the replication end control model.

<p>Grey dots represent the expected values (full correlation of both parameters) of 29 fully sequenced Vibrionaceae (Supporting <a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1007251#pgen.1007251.s008" target="_blank">S1 Table</a>), while black dots, the observed values. Red dots are the values of the strains further analyzed in <a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1007251#pgen.1007251.g007" target="_blank">Fig 7</a>. Linear equations and R² values are for regression of the observed values. A replichore is calculated as half of the corresponding chromosome, <i>ter1</i> is calculated as <i>ori1</i> + half of Chr1 (<b>A</b>) Examination of start control model. (<b>B</b>) Examination of end control model.
