Growth potential of nine PnecC strains (Supplementary Materials Table S1) in reciprocal transplantation (home-and-away) experiments. (Left panel) Three F10 lineage strains and two other strains (F4 and F5, respectively) all but one (dotted lines) originating from Pond-1 were tested for growth in sterile Pond-1 (blue) and sterile Lake Mondsee water (red). (Middle panel) Same experiment with a strain originating from a circumneutral softwater lake (Lake Unterer Klaffersee). (Right panel) Same experiment with three strains from Lake Mondsee affiliated with or closely related to lineage F17. The sterile media were inoculated at day 0, cultures were transferred in intervals of 3–5 days and sampled before transfers. In experiments with strains QLW-P1DMWA-1 and MWH-MoK4, cell numbers were determined for each transfer. In experiments with the other strains, cell numbers were determined for each second transfer. Data represent average cell numbers and standard deviations of three replicates.
