Schematic show of the algorithm for the prediction of COORs. Orthologous genes are represented by arrowed boxes of the same color. For each operon o in each genome, we construct a semi-COOR (SCOOR) by recruiting o and all other operons in other genomes if such an operon contains orthologous genes of > 50% of genes in o. We connect any two SCOORs if the larger one contains > 70% of operons in the smaller one. We predict each connected component in the resulting graph to be a COOR.
