b

The value represents the fitness cost of the mutation in S. Typhimurium LT2, expressed as the relative exponential growth rate compared to the growth rate of the wild type.

c

These mutations were used to construct combinatorial sets of target alteration mutations.

d

These mutations were used to construct combinatorial sets of regulator mutations.
