Frequencies of reversion to Suc^r in different merodiploid strains

Triala	Frequency of reversion to Sucrb
	Sakai::(pDS132::ΔtDNA5)	Sakai::(pDS132::ΔtDNA1)	Sakai::(pDS132::ΔtDNA3)
1	6.23 × 10−04	3.95 × 10−05
2	8.59 × 10−04	5.77 × 10−05
3	1.30 × 10−03		2.96 × 10−04
4	8.51 × 10−04		1.33 × 10−04

^aEach trial was conducted with two technical repeats.

^bThe frequencies of reversion to Suc^r were calculated as the colony count on LB-sucrose agar/total colony count on LB agar.
