Fig 5. Impact of pPla on bacterial morphology in the dLN.

Fig 5

LNs were collected 48h after id inoculation of 5x103 cfu of the indicated strain and sections were immunolabeled with an anti-Y. pestis antiserum. In the left panel, the orange-brown staining delineates abundant and apparently intact bacteria typical of wild-type Y. pestis (Yp.wt) infections, contrasting with the punctate staining pattern observed after infection with the Y. pestis variant devoid of pPla (Yp(∆Pla), right panel).
