Tolerance of the 11 Pseudomonas strains to (A) UV-C irradiation at 150, 300, and 450 Jm -2 , (B) freezing for 96 h, whereby percentage survival was calculated relative to the colony count of non-irradiated and unfrozen control as 100%, respectively. The mean of triplicate colony count was used to calculate percentage survival. Error bars denote the standard deviation of the mean of the three biological replicates (n = 3). Letters a, b denotes significant differences between the (A) positive control strain ( Deinococcus radiodurans MTCC 4465) and test strains and (B) negative control strain ( Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC 2453) and test strains; at p<0.0001 and p<0.0002, respectively, using one-way ANOVA by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test.
