This is a plot of the raw data pulled down from the JGI websites on bacterial and archaeal genomes. The overall hypothesis is that there should be patterns in the GC content and genome size that relate to phylogenetics, ecosystem, energy sources and use, biosynthetic clusters, secondary metabolite gene clusters, and other factors.
