Figure 5. Genetic arrangement of the genome of B. ancashensis isolate 20.00 from a patient with verruga peruana, rural Ancash region, Peru, compared with that of B. bacilliformis KC583. Black lines indicate chromosomes and gray lines link syntenic genomic regions that are rearranged between the 2 genomes. FliJ genes are indicated by black vertical bars, and flagellar gene clusters are indicated by arrows, which indicate direction of transcription.
