a
CLas-infected greenhouse-grown Duncan grapefruit (DG-GH) used as inoculum source for graft or psyllid transmission of the pathogen.
b
Psyllids that acquired the pathogen after feeding on DG-GH plant.
c
DG and MV plants graft-inoculated using tissue from the source DG-GH.
d
Receptor plants (DG, MV, Citrus macrophylla, Sun Chu Sha and Clementine mandarins, sour orange) that became infected upon psyllid transmission of the bacterium from the source DG.
e
Number of clones contained a particular number of repeats out of total clones sequenced.
