C. albicans germinating yeasts show much weaker adhesion than germ tubes. (a) Germinating yeasts express fewer Als proteins than germ tubes. (b) Typical force-distance curves recorded in Tris NaCl buffer between S. epidermidis and C. albicans germinating yeasts. (c, d) Adhesion force (c) and rupture length (d) histograms obtained by recording force curves between 3 cell pairs from different cell cultures, and representative of a total of 6 cell pairs (n > 500 force-distances curves for each pair).
