z
Average of at least 4 isolates from each species.
x
log-transformed number of conidia per cm2; nd = not detected.
y
Mean ± S.E.M (standard error of mean); values within the same column followed by the same letters are not significantly different based on the analysis of least significant difference (LSD) test at P = 0.05.
