Figure 1: Growth inhibition of common scab-inducing S. scabies by various Pseudomonas strains. In plate inhibition assays, S. scabies was either grown in the absence of an antagonist or was confronted with a Pseudomonas strain (LBUM 223, LBUM 300 or LBUM 647). Growth inhibition zones were measured after 6 days. Data are presented as mean ± standard error (n = 9). Means of groups annotated with different letters were signifi cantly different (P < 0.05).
