The expression levels of the iron uptake-related genes. The expression levels of the iron uptake-related genes (fecA, fhuA, fepA, fepC, feoB, fyuA, iutA, chuA, iroN1, iroN2) were tested by qPCR. A The expression levels of the iron uptake-related genes in the WT strain, DE205BΔireA, and DE205BΔireA/ireA*. B The expression levels of the iron uptake-related genes in the WT strain, DE205BΔ0007, and DE205BΔ0007/0007*. C The expression levels of the iron uptake-related genes in the WT strain, DE205BΔ0008, and DE205BΔ0008/0008*. D The expression levels of the iron uptake-related genes in the WT strain, DE205BΔ2235, and DE205BΔ2235/2235*. The relative gene expression levels were calculated using the 2−△△Ct method; the values are expressed as percentages.
