Pathogen effect sizes (Pη2) were calculated by dividing the sum of squares explained by the pathogen (SSP) by the total sum of squares at the whole-plot level (SSWP). Host effect sizes (Hη2) were calculated by dividing sum of squares explained by the host (SSH) by the total sum of squares at the split-plot level(SSSP).We did not calculate the effect size for host genotype on infection efficiency because the term was not significant (ns).
