FIG 5.
A null dccA mutation variably affects R20291 and 630Δerm sporulation. Shown are data from ethanol-resistant sporulation assays of R20291, R20291 ΔdccA (RT2656), and R20291 ΔdccA Tn916::PCD1421-dccA (MC1961) (A) and 630Δerm, 630Δerm ΔdccA (RT2703), and 630Δerm ΔdccA Tn916::PCD1421-dccA (MC1960) (B) grown on 70:30 sporulation agar at H24. The means and standard errors of the means from at least three biological replicates are shown. No significant differences were determined by one-way ANOVA. complt, complemented strain.
