Figure 1From: Uncovering metabolic pathways relevant to phenotypic traits of microbial genomesOverview of the approach. The three major steps of our approach are: metabolic reconstruction of completely sequenced genomes resulting in pathway profiles; pathway selection resulting in lists of pathways ranked by relevance; and cross-checking of the resulting pathway rankings by classification in order to estimate their significance (Figure S1 in Additional data file 2).Back to article page
