For each degree group the fraction of putative essential genes was computed and plotted as shown. Solid lines in the graphs were fitted using the available data points. The r-values represent Pearson correlation coefficients between fractions of putative essential genes and their degrees. Putative essential genes are orthologs of genes identified as essential by Baba ., [76]. Putative essential genes are orthologs of genes identified as essential by Kobayashi ., [75]. Putative essential genes are the intersection of genes predicted to be essential from the and sets. Putative essential genes are the union of the and sets.
