The diameters of the lesions (left) and the inhibitory rate (right) of all treatments. (0) The pathogen and M. pulcherrimaat the same time. (12A) M. pulcherrimainoculated 12 h earlier than the pathogen. (12B) The pathogen inoculated 12 h earlier than M. pulcherrima. (24A) M. pulcherrimainoculated 24 h earlier than the pathogen. (24B) The pathogen inoculated 24 h earlier than M. pulcherrima. Each value is the mean of 3 experiments. Bars on the top of columns represent the standard error of the mean. Data in columns with the different letters are significantly different according to Duncan’s multiple range test at p ≤ 0.05
