Figure 2: Genome Alignment of Streptococcus suis strains. Each strain chromosome is depicted as a series of ordered LCBs (Locally Collinear Blocks). Vertical lines connect homologous LCBs across the genomes. LCBs identically present in the eight genomes are given the same colors and horizontally flipped LCBs identify chromosomal inversions. Gaps or white spaces in LCB order represent strain-specific regions.
