Special thanks to Mohamed Sebaihia (Sanger Institute, Cambridge, UK) who allowed us to update the original database entry (AM180355). We thank Richard Stabler (London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, London, UK) who gave several comparison gene files between the reference genome and 027 strains. Special thanks to Ana Antunes, Sylvie Bouttier, Thomas Candela, Claire Janoir and Johann Peltier who provided help with specific gene annotations. We are grateful to Marc Griffiths and Erica Porter for their help with English corrections. B. D., M. M., C. B.-E. and I. M. designed the study. C. B.-E. and M. M. carried out the major part of the manual reannotation of the genome together with M. T., and I. M.-V. D. V. and C. M. were involved in automatic reannotation and administration of the MicroScope platform. M. M., I. M.-V. and B. D. wrote the manuscript.

SGM adopts a new way of ordering offprints As a result of declining offprint orders and feedback from many authors who tell us they have no use for their free offprints, SGM has decided to phase out our practice of sending 25 free offprints to all corresponding authors. We are also changing the way in which offprints are ordered. When the final version of this article has been authorized for printing, you will receive an email containing a link to the SGM Reprint Service. You can forward this email to your co-authors if you wish, so that they can order their own offprints directly, or to your finance or purchasing department, if orders are placed centrally. When you click on the link in the email, you will be taken to an order page to place your offprint order. Like most online ordering sites, it will be necessary to set up an account and provide a delivery address while placing your order, if you do not already have an account. Once an account and delivery address have been set up, these details will be stored by the system for use with future orders. Payments can be made by credit card, PayPal or purchase order. For an initial period, authors will be provided with a discount code that will allow them to order 25 free offprints, as well as any additional offprints they wish to purchase. This code will be valid for 90 days, and applies only to the paper for which it was issued. As all offprint orders will be despatched by courier from now on, there will be a charge for postage and packing, even on orders that consist only of free offprints. Review authors will receive a discount code for up to 100 free offprints, as at present.
SUMMARY
N You can create or update your account at any time at http://sgm-reprints.charlesworth.com/
N You will be sent an email when the offprints of this paper are ready for ordering
N You cannot order offprints of this paper before this email has been sent, as your paper will not be in the system
N You will also receive a discount code that will allow you to order 25 free offprints (postage & packing applies)
N Offprints can be ordered at any time after publication, although the discount code is only valid for 90 days The ordering details and discount code will be emailed to the author listed as the corresponding author on the journal’s manuscript submission system. If your paper has been published (the final version, not the publish-ahead-of-print version) but you have not received your discount code, email
[email protected] quoting the journal, paper number and publication details. If you have any questions or comments about the new offprint-ordering system, email
