Figure 2

Different C. jejuni wild-type and htrA mutant strains exhibit high motility. Motility assays were performed for 36 h on agar using wild-type (wt) C. jejuni and different htrA mutants of strain 81–176 (A) and NCTC11168 (B) and revealed high motility for each strain. (C) Quantification of motility using the indicated wt and mutant C. jejuni strains. One hundred percent of motility corresponds to the highest swarming capability presented by C. jejuni wt strain NCTC11168. No significant (ns) differences were seen among the various highly motile strains. The ΔflaA/B mutant was used motility-deficient a control
