Figure 2
Relative activities of various promoters including DIV promoters in transformants.
Ten independent transformants for each promoter were analysed. The promoter activity levels were determined by dividing egfp mRNA levels by Sh ble mRNA levels. The circles indicate the mean triplicate measurements of the independent transformants. The diamonds denote the average values of the six transformants from Cfnr pro. or of the ten transformants from the other promoters. Pro.-less denotes cases in which no promoter was linked to the egfp gene in the transformation vector (negative control). PtfcpA pro. shows the positive control in the transformation vector egfp gene driven by PtfcpA pro. Asterisks indicate the presence of a statistically significant difference derived from the PtfcpA pro. transformants (**P < 0.01 and *P < 0.05).
