a

The hybridization signal intensity (mean of three technical replicates) obtained with the mutant was divided by that obtained with the wild type to obtain the M/W ratio.

b

The normalized hybridization signals for those genes between the wild type and mutant are all statistically significantly different as analyzed by Student's t test (P < 0.001).

c

Genes having >1.5 or <0.66 final M/W ratios were designated as having higher or lower expression in the mutant, respectively.

d

Genes were detected on the basis of X. fastidiosa Temecula1 genomic sequences at the NCBI website.

e

Currently annotated as colicin V precursor.

f

ND, no designation.
