S. typhimurium induces PCD in the C. elegans germ line. (A) Cell corpses were counted over time in one gonad arm, starting with young adult animals fed on E. coli OP50 or S. typhimurium SL1344. Data (mean ± SD) are from at least three independent experiments; more than 15 animals were scored at each time point. (B–E) Confocal images showing 1-day-old hermaphrodite worms fed on E. coli OP50 (B and C) or S. typhimurium SL1344 (D and E) for 12 h. In the transmission images (B and D), the cell corpses are indicated with arrows. Merged images (C and E) show corpses stained with SYTO 12. (Bar = 30 μm.)
