Figure 3. Growth of wild type and RubisCO mutants.

Growth of H. neapolitanus cultures in air supplemented with 5% CO₂ (A) and in ambient CO₂ (B); wild type (•), cbbL::Tc NC cbbL (○), cbbS::Tc NC cbbS (▾), cbbLS::Tc NC cbbLS (∇), cbbLS::Tc C cbbLS (▪), and cbbLS::kan^r (□). Growth was monitored by measuring optical density of batch cultures at 600 nm.
