Figure 10

Distribution of monosaccharide pairs in various bacterial groups. For taxonomy Set 2 the matrix presents relative abundance data for monosaccharide residue pairs of all linkage types, involving the 20 most common residues serving as donor (children) or acceptor (parent). Each circle area reflects the relative abundance of a given donor-acceptor pair (matrix coordinates) within the corresponding taxonomic group, normalized to the total number of pairs within that group.
