A single Bom gene rescues the Bom∆^55C immunodeficiency toward C. glabrata. The graph illustrates the survival of transgenic adults at indicated intervals after infection with C. glabrata. Each transgene encodes either the 4 Bom peptides of 55C-Right or a single one of these peptides, as indicated. All transgenes were present in 2 copies in a Bom∆^55C background. Each curve represents the pooled results of 3 independent experiments involving ≥25 flies per genotype. Survival curves were compared using the Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test. Significance is shown relative to the no transgene control (Bom∆^55C) and adjusted for multiple comparisons (*** p < 0.0001; ns, not significant, p > 0.05).
