Pir proteins are functionally redundant. The osmotin tolerance of congenic strains containing various combinations of PIR deletions (see Materials and Methods) was compared with that of the parental wild-type strain DT8–1D and BWG7a in liquid cultures. Values are the average of two independent experiments and are normalized to the OD600nm of control cultures without osmotin.
