Extended Data Fig. 8. Colonization of germ-free mice orally inoculated with strains of B. thetaiotaomicron.
a, Monoassociation colonization efficiencies of BtΔtdk and BtΔtdkΔ0416 as measured via stool sample colony forming units (c.f.u) (n = 10, P > 0.05: ns, determined by a two-sided Student’s t-test). b, Bacterial load in the cecal content of monocolonized and conventionalized mice as measured by 16 S rDNA copies (n = 10, P > 0.05: ns, determined by one-way ANOVA with Tukey posttest).
