Key Finding
The findings reveal that high temperature and phosphate-depleted cells contain the lowest genome copies (2.4 ± 0.3 and 1.9 ± 0.2) and showed the potential to rapidly produce fully segregated mutants. In addition, higher antibiotic concentrations improve the selection of homozygous transformants while maintaining similar genome copies at a constant temperature.
Countstar Connection
Cell numbers were assessed in the study's cell samples with a Countstar instrument during sample-quality assessment.
