Growth analyses of the wt, [SWI+], and swi1∆ strains upon treatment of a panel of chemical stressors. (a) Cell growth in YPD supplemented with various amount of each indicated chemical stressor was monitored by a plate reader in a time window of 72 h. The growth index (colored as denoted) was determined based on data from at least three independent tests as described in the Methods. The tested chemical stressors were categorized into 4 subgroups (indicated by different text colors) based on the response patterns of the three strains. (b) For chemical stressors that display a beneficial effect on the fitness of [SWI+] cells (purple-colored in the panel a), growth curves are shown for the three strains.
