Fig 6

(a) The 48-h swarming motility assays for SBW25 containing pME6032 +/- rsmQ. (b) The 72-h swarming motility assays for SBW25 cells either plasmid free (-) or carrying pQBR103Km (+) or pQBR103Km-ΔrsmQ grown on 0.5% agar plates with media as indicated. Quantification of swarming of 4 biological replicates in triplicate can be found in S5 Fig. (c) Congo red absorbance (A490) of SBW25 strains after 48 h (light blue, pink bars) or 72 h (green, red, dark blue bars). Independently performed one-way ANOVA results show statistically significant differences for both overexpression (p < 0.0001) and deletion (p < 0.0001). Statistical significance from Tukey’s multiple comparisons is indicated (p < 0.0001, ****). Data are available in S5 Data. WT, wild-type.
