Fig. 6

Colonization of wheat roots by the B.cereus 0–9 (RFP), ΔamyS (RFP), ΔamyS/amyS (RFP) and ΔamySec (RFP) strains. (CK) represents initial bacterial counts; (A) represents the colonization capacity of the strains after 7 d; (B) represents exogenous starch; (C) represents exogenous glucose; (D) represents exogenous maltose; (E) represents exogenous maltodextrin; (F) represents exogenous starch and commercial α-amylase; (G) represents exogenous starch and AmyS protein. The symbol “**” indicates that the P value of the difference between the data of B. cereus 0–9 and the mutants was extremely significant (P < 0.01)
