Most (93%) of these core gene clusters contained a single representative from each strain.

The variable gene clusters are increasing and the core gene clusters are decreasing (Fig.  2e).

In order to determine the functional profile of core genes, the core gene clusters were aligned against UniProt [ 30].

The core gene clusters were compared in an all-against-all BLAST with protein sequences from UniProt based on the '50/50 rule' [ 30].
