Figure 1

Distribution of carbohydrate sequences for various taxonomic classes. For the combined BCSDB and GLYCOSCIENCES.de databases the pie chart sector areas correspond to the distribution (in percent) of the 13775 assigned sequences within the taxonomic classes shown, while the labels give the absolute numbers of sequences. The white pie sector contains all classes which each have < 1% of the total assigned records. This category is expanded in the bar chart at the right, where the bottom block "all other" contains all classes which each have < 0.1% of the assigned records. Class names ending with ...opsida or ...mycetes correspond to plants or fungi, respectively; Actinopterygii contains fish while Chondrichthyes contains sharks.
