Pathogenic mycobacteria cause C. elegans mortality. (A) Procedure for infecting C. elegans. Adult nematodes were grown on NGM plates seeded with E. coli and infected for (B) 4, (C) 24 or (D) 48 h on day 3 as indicated by the gray shaded regions on each graph. During recovery on NGM plates seeded with E. coli, nematode survival was determined. Data shown are survival for 20 nematodes in each group. Key in (D) is for (B–D). Log‐rank analysis was used to compare survival of each infection group. (B) Mm versus. Ms P = 0.0567; Mm versus. E. coli P = 0.0095; Ms versus E. coli P = 0.3776. (C) Mm versus E. coli P < 0.0001; Ms versus E. coli P = 0.2207; Mm versus Ms P < 0.0001. (D) Mm versus Ms P < 0.0001; Mm versus E. coli P < 0.0001; Ms versus E. coli P = 0.0750.
