Genetic organization of a locus encoding LPS biosynthetic genes in Xoo strain BXO1. a. Overall G+C content of the locus and the flanking regions. The G+C content of the genomic island was calculated without including the sequences of IS elements. The overall G+C content of the genome is ~65%. b. Organization and G+C content of individual genes and transposases of IS elements. IS1114 encodes a truncated ORF. Arrows indicate transcriptional orientation. c. and d. Presence (+) and absence (-) of genes/PCR products in particular strains. § Indicates PCR products obtained using primer pairs directed against either metB and wxoA or etfA and wzm. # similar results were obtained with all Xoo strains tested excepting BXO8 and Nepal 624. * similar results were obtained with the Nepal 624 strain.
