Figure 3

Deletion of bldO or overexpression of WhiB causes precocious hypersporulation in liquid medium.

Time‐lapse images (4, 9, 15 and 19 h) of (A) wild‐type S. venezuelae, (B) the bldO mutant and (C) wild‐type S. venezuelae constitutively expressing whiB from the ermE* promoter, grown in DNB, in the microfluidic system. All three strains carry the same FtsZ‐YPet translational fusion expressed from the native ftsZ promoter, and both the DIC (upper) and fluorescence (lower) images are shown. For the corresponding movies, please see Supporting Information Movies S1A/B, S2A/B and S6A/B. Scale bars = 10 µm.
