Cloning, Identification, and Characterization of the rpoS-Like Sigma Factor rpoX from Vibrio alginolyticus

Figure 3

Kinetics of cell growth of both mutant and wild type of V. alginolyticus ZJ-51, wild type (Op: closed circle; Tr: closed triangle), rpoX null mutant (Op: closed diamond; Tr: closed square), and complemented strains (Op: open circle; Tr: open triangle). Bacteria were grown in TSB medium in Erlenmeyer flasks, which were incubated at with 240 rpm. Samples were taken at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, and 24 hours. For every sample, the OD at 600 nm was measured.
