Figure 7

Colony morphology of V. parahaemolyticus. Wild type (WT) V. parahaemolyticus displayed rugose phenotype when incubated in APW#3 media followed by 48-72 hours incubation on LB agar. Mutant ∆EPS only displayed smooth phenotype under the same conditions. Complementation of ∆EPS by the EPS genes restored the rugose phenotype while the ∆EPS mutant with empty vector remained smooth.
