TABLE 4.

Relative fitness of Dap^NS S. aureus strains

Dap^S/Dap^NS strain pair	Mean relative fitness ± SEM^a	P value^b
616/703	0.953 ± 0.037	0.4708
Q2819/Q2818	0.761 ± 0.004	<0.0001
BOY755/BOY300	0.914 ± 0.039	0.0684
CB5011/CB5012	0.801 ± 0.030	0.0010
CB5062/CB5063	0.982 ± 0.021	0.2312
CB1663/CB1664	0.625 ± 0.019	<0.0001

Values were derived from at least four independent experiments.

The statistical significance (P value) of the difference between the formed generations of the Dap^S strain and those of the corresponding Dap^NS strain was determined by Student's t test.
