a Heatmap showing transcriptional changes (log2 fold-change) of genes encoding putative c-di-GMP turnover proteins upon DMSO or nitrate supplementation. b Biofilm formation of S. algae CECT 5071 WT harboring the empty plasmid pBBR1MCS-2 (denoted as VC for “vector control”) or expressing the PDE from S. Typhimurium YhjH or the catalytically inactive derivative YhjH E136A cloned in this plasmid in the absence or in the presence of 35 mM DMSO or nitrate. Data represent the average and SD of three biological replicates with seven technical replicates per sample. Statistical significance of the differences was determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post-hoc test (****P < 0.0001, ns not significant).
