pthXo7 converts PXO86 from an incompatible to a compatible strain on IRBB5. (A) Lesion formation is enhanced by pthXo7 in PXO86 on 50-day-old IRBB5 (xa5/xa5) plants. Strains as indicated in the graph were inoculated by the leaf-clip method on IR24 (filled columns) and IRBB5 (hatched columns), and lesions were measured from tip at 17 days after inoculation. The values represent the means of eight plants for each treatment. Columns with the same lowercase letters do not differ from each other at the significance level of P < 0.01 using the Tukey test for post-ANOVA analysis. The experiment was repeated twice. (B) Bacterial leaf populations of PXO86 are enhanced by pthXo7. Rices leaves inoculated with the indicated strains were excised 17 days after inoculation, ground in water, and plated after serial dilution for counting colony forming units, which were measured on a per leaf basis. Small case letters indicate significant differences in values at P < 0.01.\.
