Proportion of genes in COGs sorted from each whole genome compared to the proportion of genes in COGs sorted from the essential genes for each genome. For all strains used in the study, the genes of the genome were sorted into COGs and the number of genes in each COG is expressed as a proportion of the total number of genes in the genome. Similarly, the essential genes were sorted into COGs and the number of genes in each COG is expressed as a percentage of the total number of essential genes. Thus, for example, the essential genes consist of a greater proportion of those coding for functions related to “translation” than the proportion of “translation”-related genes in the whole genome. Some genes are in more than one COG and were allocated into all relevant categories
