Figure 4

Block of genes acquired by lateral gene transfer (LGT) in Xylella fastidiosa. The gene map at the top shows the LGT block of genes with a green bar. The gene block begins with trpAa on the left and ends with trpR on the right. Intergenic spacing is given. The vertical pale green bar in the lower panel shows the corresponding genes from bottom to top. The GC% for each gene is shown, and the gene products are named. The hypothetical protein belongs to pfam00583, the acetyltransferase (GNAT) family. The low-GC gene block of the X. fastidiosa genome corresponds to gene numbers XF1914 (trpAa)-XF1920 (trpR).
