Genus Visualizations

These plots show the main summary visualizations for this genus, including distributions of key genomic metrics such as genome size, GC content, number of contigs, and other relevant statistics. The boxplot for each species is based on the distribution (i.e. median, q1, q3, min and max) of the filtered genomes. The red line is the lower threshold and the blue line is the upper threshold. Use these plots to compare and explore the diversity and characteristics of genomes within this genus:
