Figure 1From: Assessment of virulence diversity of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains with a Drosophila melanogaster infection modelMRSA strains demonstrated different killing activities against D. melanogaster. (A) Kaplan-Meier survival plots of Drosophila pricked with the representative clinical MRSA strains. (B-E) Three clinical isolates within a clonal group demonstrated similar levels of killing activity: (B) USA300 isolates (2406, CMRSA10, 5391); (C) USA400 isolates (CMRSA7, 8830, 2772); (D) CMRSA2 isolates (CMRSA2, 849, 382); (E) CMRSA6 isolates (1777, CMRSA6, 086).Back to article page
