TABLE 3.
Antibacterial and antifungal activities of P. tunicata wild type and D2W2 transposon mutant
Target organism | Mean growth inhibition ± SD (mm)a
|
|
---|---|---|
Wild type (D2) | D2W2 | |
Pseudoalteromonas tunicata | 6.5 ± 0.6 | 0 ± 0 |
Bacillus subtilis | 3 ± 0.3 | 0 ± 0 |
Penicillium digitatum | 5 ± 0.3 | 0 ± 0 |
Saccharomyces cerevisiae | 3.5 ± 0.5 | 0 ± 0 |
All values are means ± the standard deviations of three replicates and represent the radii (in millimeters) of the inhibition zones of the target organisms.
