Settings for weighted-pattern matching algorithm.

To differentiate between the various E. amylovora (E.a.) and E. pyrifoliae (E.p.) sub-species, a weighted-pattern matching algorithm as described in the Methods section was applied. For sub-species identification specific masses in the reference spectra that allow differentiation between sub-species are given an overemphasized value. For E. amylovora unspecific mass signals were set to zero except for the mass signals listed in the table. E. pyrifoliae sub-species can be determined by changing the weight values for the mass signals given in the Table. By summation of all these values each entry in the library acquires a specific number.

为区分解淀粉欧文氏菌（E. amylovora，E.a.）与梨欧文氏菌（E. pyrifoliae，E.p.）的各类亚种，本研究采用了方法章节中所述的加权模式匹配算法。在亚种鉴定过程中，参考谱图中可用于区分不同亚种的特征质量信号会被赋予增强的权重值。针对解淀粉欧文氏菌，除表格中列出的质量信号外，其余非特异性质量信号均被置零。而梨欧文氏菌的亚种鉴定，则可通过调整表格中指定质量信号的权重值完成。将所有上述权重值求和后，谱库中的每个条目都会获得一个专属的数值。
