Time-course of C. elegans killing by C. nematophagum. a Timecourse of 241 L1 C. elegans survival (% alive) in the presence of OP50 (red), compared to 193 L1 C. elegans in the presence of C. nematophagum (blue). b C. elegans mixed population exposed to Chryseobacterium gallinarum for 48 h (× 40). c C. elegans mixed population exposed to C. nematophagum for 48 h, dead bacteria filled carcasses arrowed (× 40) d C. elegans L1 cultured in OP50 for 48 h (× 640); small arrow denotes anterior pharyngeal bulb and large arrow the posterior pharyngeal bulb. e C. elegans L1 cultured for 48 h with C. nematophagum, only structureless bacterial-filled carcass (star) remains (× 640)
