Deletion of ibeA, but not fimH, results in aggregation and retention of AIEC LF82 on the epithelial surface. Representative sections (n = 3) of the mid-intestine of larvae infected with (A) LF82 WT, (B) LF82ΔfimH, (C) LF82ΔfimH:fimH, (D) LF82ΔibeA:ibeA, or (E) LF82ΔibeA:ibeA at (i) 2, (ii) 24, and (iii) 48 hpi. AIEC LF82 (red), laminin (cell surface, cyan), nuclei (DAPI, white). The dotted white line outlines the intestinal epithelium and separates it from the lumen, indicated by *, and the blood vessel below the basement membrane (V). a to p marks anterior to posterior orientation; Scale bars represent 10 µm.
