FIG 1.

Histidine kinase mutant dynamics during colonization in an INSeq experiment. Colonization data for the 29 histidine kinases that were sampled in vivo in our previous INSeq study (6). Circles represent INSeq analysis of 250 squid each, and the log ratio is computed as in the previous study. Red bars represent the median replicate for each mutant. Genes indicated by an asterisk are ones for which there was prior evidence for a role in squid colonization. The same data are sorted by their maximum (A) or median (B) as described in the text.
