Figure 4

Identification rank and representation of truncated 16S rRNA from Nss. spL115 with 16S sequence truncated from the 3'-end. 16S rRNA of Nitrosospira sp. Strain L115 was truncated from its 3' end 10 nt a time for 89 times. As in Figure 3, identification of each truncated 16S rRNA was simulated with RES = 5, WIN = 3, and isotopic masses in RNase T₁ catalog. Axes are identical to those in Figure 3.
