Figure 7. Role of the eDNA in horizontal gene transfer.

Figure 7

A. Competence development and eDNA production during B. subtilis 3610 growth in MSgg medium, 37°C. B. Transformation of eDNA from culture supernatants in late exponential phase in B. subtilis PY79. “skf/sdp” stands for the cannibalism mutant (GP315), degU is the degU::mini-Tn10 mutant strain (GP229) and “3610feu” stands for amyE::Pfeu-lacZ strain (EG385). One representative experiment of two is shown.
