The linear chromosome of the plant-pathogenic mycoplasma 'Phytoplasma mali'-4

chromosome; 2 (cyan), predicted orthologs to '. P. asteris' strain OY-M; 3 (dark blue), predicted orthologs to '. P. asteris' strain AY-WB; 4 (multi-colored), predicted coding sequences of strain AT according to COGs; 5 (orange), telomere regions; 6, rrn operons (black), tRNAs (green); 7 (olive and pink), G+C skew. Differences between the phytoplasma chromosomes result mainly from the number of genes with unknown function, integration events and the presence of repair systems.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "The linear chromosome of the plant-pathogenic mycoplasma 'Phytoplasma mali'"</p><p>http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/9/306</p><p>BMC Genomics 2008;9():306-306.</p><p>Published online 26 Jun 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2459194.</p><p>
