Figure 3. Colonization kinetics of four compromised mutants in spleen (open circles) and liver (filled circles).

Small residual colonization levels after seven days of infection suggested that all shown genes contributed to Salmonella survival but were not absolutely essential. Statistical significance of clearance at day 7 compared to day 1 in spleen was determined by t-test of log-transformed data (***, P<0.001).
