Figure 2

Development of bacteriophage P1 (strain P1vir) in E. coli MG1655 host growing in a chemostat under standard conditions (panel A), or when carbon source starvation was initiated (arrow) either 5 (panel B) or 2 (panel C) hours after infection (at m.o.i. = 0.01). Numbers of living bacterial cells (colony forming units) and phages (plaque forming units) are presented (open triangles and closed squares, respectively).
