From: Excision dynamics of Vibrio pathogenicity island-2 from Vibrio cholerae: role of a recombination directionality factor VefA

Figure 5

Excision levels of VPI-2 in mutant strains and strains complemented with intV2 (VC1758), and vefA (VC1785). Excision levels of ΔintV2 mutant (RAM-1), ΔintV2 mutant complemented (SAM-1), ΔvefA mutant (SAM-3), ΔvefA mutant complemented (SAM-5), and ΔvefB mutant (SAM-4). Unpaired t-test was used in order to infer statistical significance for the differences in VPI-2 excision between V. cholerae N16961 and test strains. **, p < 0.05; ***, p < 0.005. Error bars indicate standard deviation. Each experiment was performed in triplicate a minimum of three times.
