Fig. 1 Growth of annex flora on direct cultures after incubation for (A) 16–18 h, (B) 42 h and (C) following enrichment in broth. Growth was recorded semi-quantitatively from plates inoculated by the streaking method (1, growth in the first quadrant; 2, growth in the second quadrant; 3, growth in the third quadrant; 4, growth in the fourth quadrant).
