Note.—The first column indicates the result of the nominal logistic regression (see Material and Methods). Shades of blue in the third column reflect whether 0, 1, 2, or 3 of the replicate populations in each gene version × antibiotic combination were mutated. The fourth column gives the position of the mutations within the protein, with either the corresponding amino acid change, the small indel, or the IS insertion event. Numbers in parentheses/brackets indicate the number of bacterial populations in which the indicated mutation was found. The fifth column describes the function of the protein. “p.l.,” protein length.
