DIMBOA-producing wild-type plants (BX1), or BX-deficient bx1 mutant plants. After 7, 14<br />
and 21 days of growth, roots of BX1 and bx1 plants from 2 independent genetic lines were<br />
collected and analysed for colonisation by P. putida FBC004 and other (non-GFP expressing)<br />
culturable rhizobacteria.<br />
The first experiment was performed with soil that had been autoclaved once<br />
before to the start of the experiment (Figure 5A), presenting a relatively low competition<br />
environment for the introduced P. putida cells. Two-factor ANOVA of rhizosphere colonisation<br />
of plants from Line A revealed a statistically significant interaction between plant genotype<br />
(BX1 versus bx1) and bacterial cell type (P. putida versus others) at all three time-points (7<br />
days: F 1,14 =9.151, p=0.009; 14 days: F 1,14 =43.432, p
