Fig. 4

Confocal data sets of colonized mucus illustrated as a maximum intensity projection. a “Fresh” mucus showing early colonization by bacteria. b Mucus after 28 days with bacteria (red) and protists (green) binding the lectin at their cell surface (large spherical cells, presumably T. pyriformis). Colour allocation: lectin = green, nucleic acids = red, the yellow signals in a indicate co-localization of both fluorochromes
