Figure 1From: Genomes in turmoil: quantification of genome dynamics in prokaryote supergenomesThe clock of genome dynamics. The figure shows the correlation of branch lengths and number of (a) gains, (b) losses, (c) expansions and (d) reductions. It excludes singletons, i.e., gains in the terminal branches of the tree. Both x and y axes are have a logarithmic scale. All P < 0.0001. BL, branch length or number of nucleotide substitutions per site.Back to article page
