Table 1. Results of the ranking of pathogen strains observed within a natural epidemic of powdery mildew in Plantago lanceolata.

Strain 1 2 3 4 5
Number of samples 1 11 13 16 5
z(1) z(2) z(3) z(4) z(5)
Estimated value −8.16 1.29 1.43 1.88 4.42
z(2)>z(1) z(3)>z(1) z(4)>z(1) z(5)>z(1)
p-value 0.007 0.010 0.008 0.011
z(3)>z(2) z(4)>z(2) z(5)>z(2)
p-value 0.446 0.294 0.078
z(4)>z(3) z(5)>z(3)
p-value 0.238 0.038
z(5)>z(4)
p-value 0.064

The table provides frequencies of strains in the whole sample, estimated values of coefficients Inline graphic, and test p-values indicating the significance of the ranking between the pathogen strains. The strains were ordered with respect to the estimated values of Inline graphic.
