Circos diagram of seven representative molluscan shell proteomes (the E -value cut-off of BLASTP is 1e - 20); with the shell of farmed C. nippona on the left. Different color showed the sequences of SMPs in different molluscs and their proteins pairs with SMPs of C. nippona. Percentages and proportions in brackets indicate the number of SMPs having similarities between C. nippona and the other six molluscs. The solid circles above the species names represent that the shells contain calcite, while the hollow circles indicate the shells contain aragonite.
