Potential recombination events inter- and intra-species among Neisseria strains. a. Recombination between N.subflava and N.meningitidis. A BootScan plot was generated in SimPlot with N.meningitidis-MK930374–100514-ST4832-CC4821-C-China-2005 as a query. b. Recombination between N.cinerea and N.meningitidis. A BootScan plot was generated in SimPlot with N.meningitidis-KF733132–59-ST7962-CC77-NG-China-2009-R as a query. c. Recombination between N.lactamica and N.meningitidis. A BootScan plot was generated in SimPlot with N.meningitidis-MK930398–140901-ST8241-CC4821-B-China-2009 as a query. d. Recombination between N.meningitidis strains. A BootScan plot was generated in SimPlot with N.meningitidis-MK930446-GX34173-ST9477-CC4821-B-China-2011 as a query. The strain that is predicted to contribute the most in the recombination process (backbone) is shown as a red line. The N.meningitidis reference strain 053442 (GB ID CP000381) is shown as a black line. A functional map for the reference strain 053442 is shown above based on the E.coli functional map shown in Fig. 2
