Colonization dynamics and growth promotion of Bacillus subtilis PTS-394 in tomato pot experiments. a, Bacterial cell counts on tomato plant root surfaces over time following inoculation with B. subtilis PTS-394G. b, Fluorescent microscopy of tomato roots colonized by PTS-394G. Root samples were collected at 1 (a), 3 (b), 7 (c) and 14 (d) days post-treatment. c, Effect of PTS-394 on growth promotion as measured by root fresh weight and plant height. Error bars indicate the standard deviation calculated from three independent samples. The asterisk indicates a significant difference at the 0.05 level by Duncan’s new multiple range test
