Extended Data Fig. 10: Microscopy images of colony competitions with doubly-armed attackers.
From: The evolution of short- and long-range weapons for bacterial competition
Representative microscopy images (taken after 48 h of growth) of colony competitions inoculated from different starting densities (mean inoculum density 1.9 * 105, 106 CFU/µL). and initial ratios of attacking and dual CDI/tailocin susceptible cells. All strains are expressing constitutive fluorescent protein genes and false-coloured either purple (attacker) or yellow (CDI and tailocin susceptible). Scale bar indicates 500 µm. The genotype of the attacker is ΔwapR. The genotype of the susceptible strain is ΔCDIΔR2ΔwbpL. Images shown here are representative, images were taken for every colony sampled (data presented in Fig. 4).
