The data are the results of plate confrontation assays. Strong overgrowth indicates overgrowth and sporulation within 4 days; moderate overgrowth indicates overgrowth within 7 days and occasional sporulation; no overgrowth indicates that growth stopped before or at contact with the host. Experiments were repeated at least twice, and only consistent data were recorded.
