Virulence of the P. aeruginosa qscR mutant in fruit flies. Death of flies over time when fed P. aeruginosa PAO1 (□), PAOR3 (▴), or E. coli CM830 (○). The values are the averages from 10 replicate experiments, each with 9–12 flies, and the SEM is shown for each value plotted. The parent and mutant bacteria survived equally well in the dry culture vials during the course of the experiments (data not shown). The number of bacteria recovered from flies just after death was 12 (± an SEM of 2) × 106 PAO1, and 8 (±3) × 106 PAOR3.
