The T6SS affects Bacillus growth and sporulation in melon seed radicles. a Log (CFU/ml) of B. subtilis (3610 and Δmatrix) and P. chlororaphis (PCL1606 and ΔT6SS) strains after single- and co-bacterization of melon seeds. b Sporulation percentages of Bacillus subtilis strains after single- or co-inoculation with Pseudomonas strains of melon seeds. Colony-forming units and spore percentages of Bacillus were counted 5 dpi. Average values of four biological replicates are shown, with error bars representing SD. **P value < 0.01 (Tukey test).
