(A) Representative photomicrographs of dendrite degeneration after exposed to P. aeruginosa for 24 h in srbc-48(ac23) animals and animals expressing srbc-48 under its own promoter, strain AY145 (srbc-48(ac23);Psrbc-48::srbc-48). The scale bars represent 20 µm.
(B) Quantification of the dendrite degeneration phenotype in control, srbc-48(ac23), and strain AY145 (srbc-48(ac23);Psrbc-48::srbc-48) animals. The black symbols represent individual experiments (n = 5; animals per condition = 50). Control versus srbc-48(ac23) (p < 0.0001) and srbc-48(ac23) versus strain AY145 (p < 0.0001) via one-way ANOVA test.
(C) Representative photomicrographs of animals expressing RFP under the control of the odr-1 promoter and GFP under the srbc-48 promoter. The bottom panel corresponds to the merged images. The scale bars represent 20 µm.
