Screening fresh H. siliquosa fronds for antimicrobial, QSI and QS activity using the overlay method. (A) Very weak antimicrobial activity (2 mm inhibition zone) against E. coli ATCC 11303; (B) No antimicrobial activity detected against K. pneumonia NCTC 204; (C) Pronounced antimicrobial activity of H. siliquosa against S. aureus (MRSA) ATCC 33595; (D,E) Weak antimicrobial activity of H. siliquosa against P. aeruginosa PAO1 and PA14; (F) No antimicrobial nor QSI activity detected against Serratia sp. ATCC39006; (G) No antimicrobial activity against E. cloacae. (H,I) Pronounced antimicrobial activity of H. siliquosa against QSI reporter strain C. violaceum ATCC 12472 and QS reporter strain C. violaceum CV026.
