The mutants’ impact on motility and H₂O₂ resistance under different incubation conditions. (a) The diameter of the zone of motility was measured under different incubation temperatures and compared to the wildtype. (b) H₂O₂ resistance was assessed using a standard diffusion method. Microaerobic and anaerobic atmospheres are abbreviated as “Micro” and “Ana”, respectively. Statistically significant (P < 0.05) differences are highlighted with * and indicate comparisons with the wildtype. The experiment was repeated three times independently and samples were tested in triplicate per experiment. Data are presented as mean ± standard error.
