Fig 1.

Growth of wild-type L. lactis IL1403 and spontaneous GarML-resistant mutants in glucose- and maltose-containing medium. Growth was measured by OD₆₀₀ in M17 medium with glucose (0.4%) or maltose (0.4%). Graphs show the growth of wild-type L. lactis IL1403 in glucose (♦) and maltose (▲) and the growth of L. lactis IL1403 GarML-resistant mutants in glucose (■) and maltose (×). The average growth for all six mutant isolates 200B3, 200C1, 150G1, 150G2, 150H3, and 150H4 is shown as single graphs for simplification.
