Mean disease incidence exhibited by 14-day-old Silver Queen maize seedlings. Seed were inoculated with spore suspensions of wildtype (M3125 and M3120), FvVE1 deletion (M312501 and M31206), and complementation (M312501C1 and M3120C65) strains prior to planting in sterile soil. Plants were grown at 30°C for a 14-h day and at 20°C for a 10-h night. Seedlings exhibiting disease were stunted with foliar symptoms such as chlorosis, atrophy or necrotic lesions. The experiment was conducted with a total of six technical replicates divided between two experimental replications (each technical replicate being a pot planted with 10 seed), and the data are reported as mean percent disease incidence per technical replicate. Error bar represents standard deviation. ND, no disease symptoms detected. anova indicated significant effects among treatments (P < 0·001, F = 143·9, d.f. = 6). M3125 and M312501C1 were not significantly different from each other, but were significantly different from M3120 and M3120C65 (P < 0·05).
