Fig. 3. Co-cultivation of C. reinhardtii and A. nidulans protects the alga from azalomycin F.

Fig. 3

a Microscopy pictures of C. reinhardtii co-cultivated with or without A. nidulans and treated with or without azalomycin F. Size bars: 50 µm. b Autofluorescence of C. reinhardtii treated with azalomycin F (crosshatched bars) in monoculture (Control) and co-culture with A. nidulans. Loss of red autofluorescence indicates cell death. Scale bar 50 µm. b, c Autofluorescence of C. reinhardtii. b C. reinhardtii was either immediately treated with azalomycin F (−5 h) or allowed to associate with A. nidulans 5 h prior to azalomycin F addition (+5 h). c Correlation of protection of C. reinhardtii with an increased number of spores inoculated into the medium 18 h prior to addition of C. reinhardtii. Azalomycin F was added 5 h after coincubation. *P ≤ 0.05; **P ≤ 0.01; ***P ≤ 0.001; ns not significant; data obtained from at least three biological replicates, error bars represent SDs.
