Figure 1. Pangenome of the five bifidobacterial (sub)species and phylogenetic relationships reconstruction. (A) The five (sub)species-specific pangenomes profiles. The core gene pools characterizing each bifidobacterial (sub)species, i.e., Binf-CG, Blon-CG, Bbif-CG, Bbre-CG, and Blac-CG, are highlighted as part of each core genome. (B) The phylogenomic tree based on the BPBs-CG describing the phylogenetic relationships among the 34 collected bifidobacterial probiotics. Each (sub)species-based cluster is highlighted with a different color.
