Growth curves of the 4-members Burkholderiaceae co-culture on Arabidopsis thaliana root exudates for seven generations: Growth curves obtained after 72 h in culture tests carried out with A. thaliana root exudates (PRE) collected at day 14, or 21, with plants grown on standard or N-limiting conditions: (A) 14d.PRE; (B) 21d.PRE; (C) 14d.N-PRE, and (D) 21d.N-PRE. Each growth curve corresponds to the average of eight replicates of the 4-member co-culture of Paraburkholderia phytofirmans PsJN, Cupriavidus pinatubonensis JMP134, C. metallidurans CH34, and C. taiwanensis LMG19424. Standard deviations were lower than 5 or 10% and are not shown for clarity
