#

Values for R0 were logarithmically transformed [ln (R0)] before analysis. Back transformed means and their 95% confidence limits (in brackets) are presented.

##

For each species, means within rows followed by the same uppercase letter are not significantly different (P>0.05).

###

For each culture type, means followed by the same lower case letter are not significantly different (P>0.05).
