Growth curves in liquid LB medium supplemented with 0.1% L-arabinose (A, B) and survival in M9 minimal medium supplemented with 0.1% L-arabinose, at 37°C for 30 days (C, D), of (A, C) E. coli strains WT (circles), WT expressing MtvR (squares) or the Δhfq Ec mutant (triangles), or (B,D) P. aeruginosa strains WT (circles), WT expressing MtvR (squares) or the WT strain with the hfq Pa gene silenced (triangles).
