Figure 16

A theoretical plot of the number of total genes and core genes expected among N sequenced H. influenzae genomes for future sequencing projects. The extrapolation may not hold for strains isolated outside of North America since the plot was constructed using only North American isolates. The number of core genes approaches an asymptote, which reflects a common set of genes present in all natural isolates.
