Effect on biofilm formation of individually overexpressing fabA, fabB and yqfA. The level of biofilm formation at the indicated temperatures is expressed as a percentage of wildtype SL1344 biofilm formation. The data are representative of three independent experiments (n = 3), with at least 4 replicates each. The error bars denote standard deviations between the independent experiments. For each temperature a one-sample t-test was performed to compare the mean biofilm formation of the different strains (expressed as a percentage of wildtype SL1344 biofilm formation) to the wildtype level of 100 %. Significant changes (p-value <0.05) in the level of biofilm formation as compared to the wild type at the same temperature are indicated with an asterix (*)SL1344: S. Typhimurium SL1344 wildtype strain; ∆fabR: S. Typhimurium SL1344 ∆fabR mutant (CMPG5624); SL1344/pFAJ1708-fabA: S. Typhimurium SL1344 overexpressing fabA (pCMPG10118/SL1344); SL1344/pFAJ1708-fabB: S. Typhimurium SL1344 overexpressing fabB (pCMPG10119/SL1344); SL1344/pFAJ1708-yqfA: S. Typhimurium SL1344 overexpressing yqfA (pCMP5553/SL1344)
