Table 3 Comparison of cell sizes between the Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 acetate transporter expression strain (AT) and the control strain (CS) cultivated in the presence of supplemented 15 mM acetate under continuous light of 20 μmol photons m−2 s−1 (starting OD750 = 0.05) for 8 days

From: The effect of enhanced acetate influx on Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 metabolism

Strain

Horizontal cell diameter (arbitrary unit)

AT

0.453 ± 0.0279

CS

0.444 ± 0.0251

  1. The values represent the horizontal diameter of spherical cells measured as arbitrary units, and the data is presented as the mean and standard deviation measured from 115 individual cells of each strain
