^a Comparisons between the infection type of different environments. SPM15 = Spillman Farm 2015; MTV15 = Mount Vernon 2015; CLF15 = Central Ferry 2015; SPM14 = Spillman Farm 2014; WHT14 = Whitlow Farm 2014; MTV14 = Mount Vernon 2014

^b Comparisons between the disease severity of different environments

^c Comparison between the infection type and disease severity of different environments

^d Correlation coefficients between IT and SEV of the same environment were labeled in bold and underlined

The P values of all the Pearson’s correlation coefficients in the table are smaller than 0.0001 (P < 0.0001)
