FIGURE 5.
Leaf homogenates do not directly inhibit P. syringae. We depict numbers of CFUs 2 days after inoculating (I) the bacterium on Petri dishes that 5 min before had been prepared with sterile distilled water, Tween20® or the indicated leaf homogenates. Bars indicate means ± SE of n = 4 repetitions and different letters indicate significant difference among treatments (univariate ANOVA and post hoc Tukey test: p < 0.05). Negative controls (C) were not inoculated with P. syringae to ensure that the leaf homogenates themselves did not carry bacteria.
