Whole genome comparison analysis of A. niger ATCC 10864 with other reported A. niger strains. a Comparison of A. niger ATCC 10864, A. niger An76, and A. niger SH-2 strains against reference A. niger ATCC 1015 strain (using BRIG tool). The outermost dark green circle represents the reference genome of A. niger ATCC 1015; the next purple, blue and light green circle represent A. niger SH-2, A. niger An76, and A. niger ATCC 10864 strains respectively. The black line lying in between the A. niger ATCC 10864 and genome-scale symbolize the GC content. b Comparison of A. niger ATCC 10864, A. niger An76, and A. niger SH-2 strains against reference A. niger ATCC 1015 strain (using Mauve tool). Colored block outlines are known as Locally Collinear Blocks and are connected by corresponding coloured lines. LCBs represent the regions of similarity among the genomes that are homologous and have not undergone any rearrangement. Blocks lying above the center black horizontal line are in forward orientation while blocks below the center line indicate regions that align in the reverse complement (inverse) orientation. Regions outside blocks (white regions) show no homology among the input genomes
