Distribution of expect scores for Pelagibacter syntenic fragments. The values in the plot are taken from the TBLASTN search in which predicted proteins from the HTCC1062 genome were the query genes and the Sargasso Sea metagenomic database was searched (Fig. 2A). The distribution indicates a sharp decline in expect scores approaching the cutoff of 1 × 10^-10. The data are provided as support for this choice of expect score cutoff.
