  1. Only results for continuous light conditions are shown. Average Ypet fluorescence values having a change that is statistically significant (two-tail p value <0.05) compared to the wild type are indicated with an asterisk. Linear phase and stationary phase expression are defined as having more than a 30% change in relative expression. High positive slopes of fluorescence vs. OD730 indicate stationary phase expression, high negative slopes suggest linear phase expression, and intermediate slopes are consistent with constitutive expression
