Effects of WSHM on the growth (A), AHL production (B), exopolysaccharide production (C), and exoY and expE gene expression (D) in S. meliloti 8530. All the data are expressed as average ± standard deviation (SD) (n = 3). Statistical significance was assessed by Student’s t-tests (P < 0.05; ∗∗P < 0.01; ∗∗∗P < 0.001). For exopolysaccharides production (C), S. meliloti 1021 (ΔexpR) was also included. (A) YM-CN broth: the nitrogen (yeast extract) and carbon (mannitol) source in YM broth were removed.
