Fig. 2 Virulence and persistence profiles of strains from trio 190 in mono- or co-infections in zebrafish. (A) Diagram of mono- and co-infections (created with BioRender.com). (B) Survival curves upon mono- and co-infections of zebrafish larvae (immersion of wounded larvae) with competitive strain PA190A: GFP (left panel) or coexistent strain PA190B: GFP (right panel). Survival was monitored for 48 h following the infection (n = 2, 40 larvae). Log-rang test: *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01. (C) Bacterial CFUs (horizontal black lines indicate the median) counts from live larvae at different times after mono- or co-infections (1.5, 24 or 48 hpi). Experiments (n = 3, 5 larvae per experiment and time point). The data represent independent measurements from different larvae at each time point. Statistical analysis is made between mono- and co-infection conditions. Mann-Whitney test: ****P < 0.0001.
