What they are
A C G T Its species' DNA
Shortest we have Mycoplasmoides genitalium 0.6M
⋮ 11 shorter than any Tropheryma
Tropheryma whipplei 0.9M
⋮ 2,340 longer than any Tropheryma
Longest we have Bradyrhizobium altum 9.8M
Tropheryma’s one genome we have is 0.9M: among the smallest for gut microbes.
One reference genome per species; strains vary.
Their ID genes, lined up: shared stretches form solid stripes
Fewer than two of its species have a reference ID-gene sequence in NCBI yet, so there's nothing to line up Data sources
