  1. a) The total is based on the total number of protein coding genes in the annotated genome.
  2. The genomes of C. indolis and its near relatives (C. saccharolyticum, C. hathewayi, and C. phytofermentans) have similar numbers of genes in each of the 25 broad COG categories (not shown), however differences exist in the type and distribution of genes in specific functional groups (Table 5), particularly those related to COG categories (G) Carbohydrate transport and metabolism, (C) Energy production and conversion, and (Q) Secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport and catabolism.
