Influence of rRNA methyltransferase gene inactivation on the growth rates of bacteria. (A) Doubling times of the strains devoid of the rRNA methyltransferase genes. Inactivated genes are labeled below the graph. WT corresponds to the parental isogeneic strain carrying a whole set of rRNA methyltransferase genes. (B) Doubling times of the same strains carrying a plasmid coding for the cerulean fluorescent protein (CER) and red fluorescent protein (RFP) reporter proteins at induction of reporter gene expression.
