Title of a figure, which is part of the <caption>:
...
<sec id="bid.36">
<title>Microbial Genomes</title>
<p>... A CON entry, containing instructions on how to put
the pieces back together, is also made. The CON entry
contains descriptor information, such as source organism
and references, as well as a join statement providing
explicit instructions on how to generate the complete
genome from the pieces. The Accession number assigned 
to the CON record is also added as a secondary Accession
number on each of the pieces that make up the complete
genome (see <xref ref-type="fig" rid="bid.37">Figure 2</xref>).
<fig id="bid.37">
