Table 1 Characterization of the constitutive QS-active V. harveyi mutant JAF78 containing promoter:: gfp reporter fusions

Promoter fusion	Average fluorescence [a.u./cell]		Standard deviation σ [a.u./cell] (%)
	JAF78	BB120	JAF78	BB120
P_luxC::gfp	4490	3370	1347 (30)	3033 (90)
P_vhp::gfp	730	620	226 (31)	614 (99)

V. harveyi JAF78 (ΔluxO) cells were grown to the mid-exponential growth phase, analyzed at the single cell level as described in Figure 3, and compared with the wild type BB120.
