The average relative expression levels of whiB7 in M. chelonae carrying McProf alone, BPs and McProf, no prophage, and BPs alone as measured with SYBR Green quantitative RT-PCR. Cultures were grown to an OD600 of 1.0 before harvesting RNA in triplicate. Graphs represent average values ± standard error of the mean with n = 3 and are representative of two independent trials. Means with different letters are significantly different (Tukey’s HSD, α = 0.05)
