↵* Bacterial phyla for which sequenced genomes were available at the time of constructing this table are as follows: Aquificales (1), Bacteroidetes (2), Chlamydiales (7), Chlorobi (1), Cyanobacteria (8), Thermus/Deinococcus group (1), High-G+C Firmicutes (12), Low-G+C Firmicutes (35), Planctomycetes (1), Proteobacteria (58), Spirochaetes (3), Thermotogales (1). (Fusobacterium nucleatum is included within the Low-G+C Firmicutes)
-
↵a Computed as a global mean of all individual combinations of X genomes from X phyla
-
↵b Means are first computed for each phylum combination (e.g., from the 174 genome combinations of Proteobacteria versus Spirochaetes), then a mean of these phylum means is computed. E.g., for X = 3, a genome from one phylum is compared with a genome from a second phylum and with a genome from a third phylum. The mean number of RBM for all such combinations is reported. (sd) Standard deviation, (square brackets) minimum and maximum values (n), number of combinations. See Figure 3 for a graphical representation of the phylum combinations data
