From: Mathematical modeling and comparison of protein size distribution in different plant, animal, fungal and microbial species reveals a negative correlation between protein size and protein number, thus providing insight into the evolution of proteomes

Figure 8

Protein size histograms in dicot and monocot plants (Viridiplantae). Empirical distribution of protein length in some representative plant genomes. The range of protein lengths in the x-axis is from 0 to 1,500 aa. The y-axis indicates the percentage of proteins that fall into the given interval bins of 1 aa. The letters in red indicate the theoretical model that best fits the observed distribution. Consult Additional file 1: Table S1 for species abbreviations.
