Fig. 3

Different types of motifs detected by MetaCarvel. a Four-node bubbles denote the variation between very similar sequences. They can result in the graph due to the species with very high sequence similarity. b Three-node bubbles potentially represent gene gain/loss events and horizontal gene transfers. They are formed due to the insertion or deletion of chunks between two otherwise similar genomes. c Interspersed repeats in the graph are denoted by the nodes with high centrality and usually tangle the graph
