Challenge under the low temperature of different strains. Each bacterial suspension with concentration of 107 CFU/ml (DE205B, DE205BΔireA or DE205BCΔireA) were incubated at 4 °C for 7days. The survival rates of wild-type and mutant strains were calculated by plate counting and compared using GraphPad Prism 5. The ireA deletion mutant was reduced 70.0 % (P < 0.01) under the low (4 °C) temperature compared to that of the wild type strain
