Table 2. Transport rates of branched-chain amino acids and plant dry weights by strains of R. leguminosarum bv. viciae.
Strain | Genotype | Alanine | Leucine | Isoleucine | Valine | Plant dry weights |
RU1721 | braEF::ΩTc | 10.4±1.6 | 3.9±0.4 | 3.0±0.2 | 4.0±0.1 | 1.14±0.08 |
RU1976 | aapQ P144DbraEF::ΩTc | 7.0±1.1 | 1.5±0.1 | 1.1±0.1 | 2.0±0.2 | 1.12±0.08 |

Transport rates are the mean ± SEM of 3 independent cultures expressed as nmol min−1mg−1 protein. Dry weights (g plant−1) are averages of 15 plants.
