  • a Groups defined as (I) genes not involved in pathogenicity; (II) genes with undefined category and unknown-function; (III) genes whose products are virulence factors that interacted directly with host plant cells; (IV) gene that interacted indirectly with host cells, but is required for full bacterial virulence.

  • b (SNPs) single-nucleotide polymorphisms; (A) number of nonsynonymous SNPs; (S) number of synonymous SNPs; (average SNP/codon) ratios of total SNPs vs. total number of codons; (A/S) ratios of total nonsynonymous SNPs vs. total synonymous SNPs.

  • c P-values from χ2 test for the difference in A/S ratios in all the pairwise comparisons among the four functional groups.
