A Micrographs of Anabaena filaments of the WT, the gPCEM strain, and the Δsuc-gPCEM strain cultured in BG11 medium with 1 mM of theophylline (TP) and 0.3 μM Cu2+ at the indicated days and light conditions. LL: low light; SL: standard light; HL: high light. Scale bars: 10 µm. B Statistical analysis of cell length and cell width of the indicated strains at the indicated days after induction under different light conditions. 300 cells of each strain from three independent experiments were measured. The mean value was indicated with the numbers. The Student’s t-test examined the differences between the WT and the other strains. Results were considered significant at *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001, ns: no significance.
