Tomato juices enriched with different flavonoids have different effects on B. cinerea infection of tomatoes. A, Total antioxidant capacity of different tomato juices. Error bars show se (n = 3). **, P < 0.01 compared with wild-type (WT) juice. B, Juice supplements to B. cinerea inoculum on wild-type MoneyMaker fruit differentially affect susceptibility. Different juices were supplied to different inoculation sites on wild-type fruit, and lesion sizes at 3 dpi were measured. Error bars show se (n = 12). Asterisks indicate significant differences (**, P < 0.01) compared with nonsupplemented one-quarter-strength potato dextrose broth (PDB).
