Figure 3From: Hyperosmotic response of streptococcus mutans: from microscopic physiology to transcriptomic profileRelative quantification of eight selected genes expression during short-term hyperosmotic stress by quantitative RT-PCR. Fold change of each gene expression was relative to control (without NaCl). Results were averaged from 3 independent experiments and are presented as mean ± standard deviation. *, P ≤ 0.05.Back to article page
