Effect of functional Als5p amyloid on intestinal occupation in C. elegans. (A) Accumulation of intact yeast cells counted in C. elegans alimentary tracts after 24 h (mean ± standard error of the mean for n ≥ 10 worms per food source). See Materials and Methods for details. (B) Live fungi recovered from C. elegans after 24 h of feeding. Shown are means ± standard errors of the means from two independent experiments where more than 50 animals were used in each trial. CFU are per nematode. ∗ indicates a Student t test P value of <0.05; ∗∗ indicates a Student t test P value of <0.005.
