Comparative analysis of the number of genes present in each functional category as defined by the COG database for S. glossinidius, E. coli K-12, S. typhimurium, and Y. pestis. The number of genes in each COG category in Sodalis rendered nonfunctional (pseudogene) is denoted by the gray shaded area.
