Effects of V. tubiashii on the growth of P. inhibens strains in a competition assay. P. inhibens S4Sm strains were allowed to grow and form biofilms for 24 h before the addition of V. tubiashii RE22Sm. The mixed cultures are: S4Sm-OFP with RE22Sm-GFP, clpX-OFP with RE22Sm-GFP and exoP-OFP with RE22Sm-GFP. a Growth of sessile S4 cells (with RE22Sm) in a co-culture system and a monoculture control. b Growth of planktonic S4 cells (with RE22Sm) in a co-culture system and a monoculture control. The data presented are averages of two independent experiments with each experiment done in triplicate. Error bars represent one standard deviation
