Additional file 2: Fig.S1 Flowchart describing the entire workflow. Anoverview of the main methods and results in the current study. Fig. S2 The core- and pan-genome plotof studied MABC subspecies. The core- and pan-genome curves of the three MABCsubspecies were illustrated using red (M.abscessus), green (M. bolletii)and blue (M. massiliense). Thecore-genome curve represents the least-squares fit of exponential decayfunction to average number of gene families that consistently observed for eachaddition of new genomes, whereas the pan-genome curve indicate the power lawfitting of the average number of novel gene family added per additional genomesequences. The exponents (0.44 in M.abscessus, 0.30 in M. bolletiiand 0.42 in M. massiliense) ofpan-genome curves are greater than zero, indicating each MABC subspecies has anopen pan-genome.
