^aThe number in parentheses indicates the number of independent solo insertions identified in each gene

^bThe gene designation and proposed function are based on the annotated genome sequence of C. jejuni strain 11168 (43).

^cThe transformation efficiency is calculated as the number of transformants per total number of CFU per microgram of DNA.

^dNA, not applicable.
