Figure 5. No evidence for Δade1 movement beyond the primary infected cell at 75 hpi.

To determine if Δade1 strains continue to grow, or if growth accelerates later in infection, we observed Guy11 and Δade1 growth in leaf epidermal cells at 75 hpi. At this timepoint, Guy11 had spread to multiple adjacent cells, but Δade1 remained confined to the primary infected cell. White arrows are appressoria and the point of infection. Scale bar is 5 μm.
