Relative expression of SpdR-regulated genes. Expression of the indicated genes was analyzed by qRT-PCR using total RNA samples obtained from the wild type NA1000 and the ∆spdR strain at both exponential and stationary phases. Results represent the expression of each gene in the corresponding strain and growth phase relative to exponentially growing wild type cells. Data represent mean values from two biological replicates, with bars indicating the standard errors
