A Illustration of image processing to enumerate plant green pixels, approximating plant biomass. B Phylogenetic tree of 127 representatives, putatively commensal non-ATUE5 strains sampled from southwest Germany [16]. All other non-ATUE5 isolates in this collection are represented in this core collection by a strain with which they share ≥ 99% of genes. Colors indicate the ATUE group [16], and asterisks the 99 strains used here. C Daily median of plant green pixels among the different treatments. Control treatments: Bacteria-free buffer, pathogen only, and co-infections of the pathogen with the protective strain and the heat-killed protective strain. Plants were imaged daily. n = 8 replicates per treatment.
