Insertion indices of S. equi genes disrupted by barcoded pGh9:ISS1. a. Insertion indices (log10) per gene is replicable between the six barcoded libraries. Each library is identified by its barcode on the right of the figure. The data was combined to generate a master library. Common peaks and troughs are evident; a decreased insertion index is clear in all libraries in a region of ribosomal proteins, with peaks in the integrative conjugative elements ICESe1 and ICESe2 visible. b. Box and whisker plot of the insertion indices of each barcoded library and the master library. The pooling of data to generate the master library was supported by the increased interquartile range and the elevated lower quartile range, increasing the robustness of the data set from which gene essentiality was determined. Average insertion indices from master library data in a region of ribosomal proteins, ICESe1 and ICESe2 are shown
