a

Data were adapted from the report by Lin et al [23].

b

This swimming assay was performed on 0.3% soft nutrient gelatin agar (NGA) plate.

c

The scale shown with ±standard error is the mean diameter of swimming area and is calculated on triplicates.

d

The bacteria were inoculated in tobacco leaves at 108 cfu/ml.

e

Symbol -, + and ++ denote respectively that bacteria are non-motile, swimming slowly and swimming well.

f

The time represents the appearance of necrosis symptom and was recorded within 48 h.
