Expression of cinI-gusAwas monitored in planktonic cinImutant R. etli. The cinI-inducing capacity of aqueous extracts from a swarm colony of WT cells (75-fold diluted) and stationary-phase culture of WT cells (5-fold diluted) was analyzed. The dilution factor is related to the initial volume of the isolated swarm colony and liquid culture, respectively. Values are the means of 10 (swarmers) and 5 (liquid culture) independent experiments. The standard deviation is indicated in parentheses.
