From: Phylogenies of the 16S rRNA gene and its hypervariable regions lack concordance with core genome phylogenies

Fig. 3

Dot plot showing the number of SNPs required for 80% concordance with the species phylogeny for seven SNP categories (see text). Non-ribosomal SNPs (NR, dark blue), coding ribosomal SNPs (CR, light blue), core gene SNPs (Core, grey), 3rd and 1st/2.nd nucleotide positions from non-ribosomal genes (NR 3, NR 1–2; dark blue) and coding ribosomal genes (CR 3, CR 1–2; light blue). Genus labels follow Fig. 1. The average number of SNPs necessary for 80% concordance for each SNP category is indicated by larger dots
