a Wild-type Anabaena sp. was grown in BG11 and cells were treated as indicated followed by RNA isolation and qRT-PCR analysis with specific oligonucleotides for anaCyp40 (Supplementary Table 4). The mean of the ratio to the mRNA abundance in non-treated cultures is shown and error bars indicate the standard deviation (n = 4). The statistical significance determined by ANOVA (Duncans) of the difference to non-treated cultures is indicated. b Two independently generated AFS-I-anaCyp40 strains and wild-type cells were spotted at two indicated concentrations at BG11 supplemented with indicated concentrations of NaCl. The plates were imaged after 8 days of growth. c Wild-type (blue) and AFS-I-anaCyp40 (orange) were grown in BG11 liquid medium (left) with additional 100 mM NaCl (right). The culture density was imaged after 8 days (top) and the average values and the standard deviation for the growth of three independent cultures normalized to the OD at the start of the analysis are shown (bottom).
