(A) Total numbers of regions of difference (RDs), (B) number of small insertions and deletions (indels), and (C) number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are either shared or unique between the three strains. Further details of these differences are included in , , and .

Arrows indicate the direction of gene transcription. Genes and intergenic regions are not to scale. Homologous genes in the three genomes have been assigned the same color. Solid arrows indicate putative functional genes and hatched or grey arrows represent pseudogenes. The horizontal box on the FTNF002-00 chromosomal fragment indicates the 3,868 bp fragment (positioned at 247478–251345) that is inverted with respect to the other two genomes. A vertical box over the three genomes indicates the location of a 962 bp region that is different in OSU18 (see ). The two equal sized horizontal boxes on the OSU18 genomic fragment indicate tandem duplications of a 1933 bp region (see ).
