Colonization potential of WT <i>C. jejuni</i>, the Δ<i>icmF1</i> mutant, and the Δ<i>icmF2</i> mutant in IL-10-deficient mice at 30 days post-infection.

<p>The number of WT <i>C. jejuni</i> 43431 and the mutants in the cecum (A) and the feces (B) of individual mice were quantified by Q-PCR (see <b>Material and Methods</b>) and the values plotted. A solid line represents the mean value for each group. P value: *≤0.05, **≤0.01, ***≤0.001.
