Growth rates are an important tool in microbiology because they provide high throughput fitness measurements. The release of GrowthRates, a program that uses the output of plate reader files to automatically calculate growth rates, has facilitated experimental procedures in many areas. However, many sources of variation within replicate growth rate data exist and can decrease data reliability. We have developed a new statistical package, CompareGrowthRates (CGR), to enhance the program GrowthRat ...[more]
