From: ProQ binding to small RNA RyfA promotes virulence and biofilm formation in avian pathogenic Escherichia coli

Figure 3

Essential role of ProQ in APEC/ExPEC biofilm formation. A Assessment of biofilm formation using the crystal violet assay for WT FY26, the mutant FY26ΔproQ, the complemented strain FY26CproQ, and the control FY26ΔproQ-Cp28. Strains were propagated in LB medium supplemented with 5 g/L glucose, and biofilm formation was quantified using polystyrene microtiter plates. B Visualization of biofilms formed by WT FY26, FY26ΔproQ, and FY26CproQ using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Cells are represented by green fluorescence.
