Lawns of different strains, wild type (Cap+) and capsule null mutant (Cap-) in contact with PEG-precipitated supernatant of other strains. Isogenic capsule mutants of strains #26 and #37 were constructed by an in-frame deletion of wza gene, and a wcaJ deletion for strains #57 and #58 (see Methods).
