Survival of wild-type and rpoS mutant X. nematophilus cells in M. sexta carcasses. Fifth-instar larvae of M. sexta were injected with approximately 2,000 CFU of either wild-type (white bars) or rpoS mutant (hatched bars) cells, and bacterial growth was monitored over time. Bars indicate averages; error bars indicate standard deviations. There was no significant difference between the strains (P > 0.05) (see Materials and Methods).
