Fig. 3: E. cloacae complex isolates kill pathogenic bacteria in a T6SS-1-dependent manner.

Toxigenic V. cholerae (V.c.; T6SS-deficient), enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC), S. enterica serovar Typhimurium (S.e.), or A. baumannii (A.b.; T6SS-deficient) were co-incubated with commensal Enterobacter isolates #10 and #11 and their survival was scored as indicated on the Y-axis. Values are derived from three independent experiments and the bars represent the mean (±SD, as defined by the error bars). Significant differences were determined using a two-sided Student’s t-test corrected for multiple comparisons. ***p < 0.001. Underlying source data are provided in the Source data file.
