From: A novel finding of intra-genus inhibition of quorum sensing in Vibrio bacteria
QS-associated bioluminescence reduction (in %) after 3 h when the tested V. h strain and the different QS-associated V. harveyi mutants were tested with the cell-free XTS1.2.9 culture broth (X) and sterile LB broth containing 3% NaCl (C, the control). Notes: Vh: the tested V.h strain (wild type); 886: the BB886 mutant [HAI-1( +), CAI-1 ( +), AI-2 (−)]; 375: the JAF375 mutant [HAI-1(−), CAI-1 ( +), AI-2 (−)]; 597: the JMH597 mutant [HAI-1(−), CAI-1 (−), AI-2 ( +)]; 170: the BB170 mutant [HAI-1(−), CAI-1 ( +), AI-2 ( +)]. Luminescence signals were measured with a luminometer under the same conditions. Statistically significant difference between each (X) dataset and its respective (C) dataset was indicated as **p < 0.005 or *p < 0.05.
