Whole genome alignments of the coding sequences from the Lactobacillus crispatus clinical isolates described in this study. The outermost ring represents COG annotated genes on the forward strand (color coded according to the respective COG). The positions of the genes discussed in this article are indicated. The third ring represents COG annotated genes on the reverse strand (color coded according to the respective COG). The next 12 rings each represent one genome of the LVM strains, followed by a separator ring and 16 rings each representing a genome of the DVM strains. The height of the bar and the saturation of the color in these rings indicate a BLAST hit of either > 90% identity (darker colored) or > 70% identity (lightly colored). Hits below 70% identity score are not shown and appear as white bars in the plots. The two inner most rings represent the GC content of that area and the GC-skew respectively. Abbreviations: COG: cluster ortholog genes; LVM: Lactobacillus-dominated vaginal microbiota; DVM: dysbiotic vaginal microbiota; WT: wild type
