The comparison of the in silico gene essentiality and experimental P. aeruginosa data are shown under various amino acid auxotrophic conditions. The in silico mutants were grown on Glucose-iM9 medium. * No auxotrophy was detected in iJN746, genetic redundancy for these genes was reported in Pseudomonas species. In P. aeruginosa mutants for orthologous genes, a significant residual growth on minimal medium was shown [82]. £ Alternative name in P. aeruginosa. € From [82].
