Comparative growth dynamics of selected mercury tolerant strains MTS2C, MTS3A, MTS4B, and MTS6A. The growth curve for the growth of each strain under normal conditions without the stress of mercury is represented by the data series “C”, while, the growth curve for the strain’s growth under mercury stress is represented by the data series “Hg”. The concentration of added mercury used for exerting stress for MTS2C was 0.15 mg/ml, for MTS3A was 0.1 mg/ml, for MTS4B was 0.045 mg/ml, and for MTS6A was 0.05 mg/ml, respectively. The X axis represents time lapsed in days and the Y axis represents the optical density (OD) measured over time.
