Fig. 3.

The number of bacteria (CFU/g FW) obtained from the surface of the sterilized reed canary grass root samples. Light bars – the number of bacterial endophytes grown on nutrient agar. Grey bars – the number of bacterial endophytes grown on nutrient medium enriched with DCF and SMX. N = 6. Significant differences have been marked using * (p < 0.05; t-test). Time regime of wastewater supply in brackets.

DGGE pattern of 16S rRNA gene fragments of 180 bp amplified from DNA obtained from the surface-sterilized root tissues of P. arundinacea.A1-3, C1-3 – the root samples non-exposed to DCF and SMX, B1-3, D1-3 – the root samples exposed to DCF and SMX. The frequency of wastewater supply: A1-3 and B1-3 – 0.35 l four times a day; C1-3 and D1-3 1.4 l – once a day. Description of the bands in the manuscript text.
