FIG. 5.

Comparison of the growth rates at 37°C of W. dermatitidis 8656 (wild type [wt]) and its wdchs4Δ-1 mutant (chs4) in YPD or CDN medium. Late log-phase cultures were transferred to YPD or CDN medium to the final optical density at 600 nm (OD600) of 0.06 (measured with a Beckman model 25 spectrophotometer). Cells were grown at 37°C with shaking at 200 rpm. Results shown are the average of two independent experiments.
