Quantification of bacterial predation in planktonic culture by predatory bacteria. Co-cultures were prepared by adding prey cells to harvested predator cells. Values represent maximal population change (log10) of each species, compared to a predator-free control, following predation. Each experiment was conducted at least three times and the error bars represent the standard deviation.
