Lawn leaving behavior for N2, CB4856, and different mutants towards E. coli and B. thuringiensis. Results for avoidance of: (a) E. coli OP50; (b) non-nematocidal B. thuringiensis DSM350; (c) nematocidal B. thuringiensis B-18247; and (d) highly nematocidal B-18679. The Y axis shows the proportion of escaped worms (i.e., leaving index); the X axis shows the two time points at which leaving was scored. The asterisk (*) is shown for the treatments which differ significantly from N2 whereas the hash sign (#) indicates significant differences from CB4856. The dotted reference line shows a leaving proportion of 0.5 for orientation among sub-panels. Error bars represent standard error of the mean. Raw data are given in sheet 2 of Additional file 2; detailed statistical results in Additional file 6
