Figure 6: Spontaneous and gpII-induced direct repeat recombination in exo1∆, rqh1∆ and rad51∆ single, double and triple mutants.

(a) Spontaneous Ade+ recombinant frequencies for strains MCW1159, MCW2209, MCW2070, MCW2202, MCW1894, MCW3494, MCW3492 and MCW3496 carrying pREP81 (see also Supplementary Table S1). (b) GpII-induced Ade+ recombinant frequencies for the same strains as in (a) but carrying pREP81-NLS-gpII instead of the empty pREP81 plasmid (see also Supplementary Table S1). Data are represented as mean ± standard deviation. Where a bar extends beyond the scale on the Y axis the value is indicated by the number in the bar.
