x For each plant, ten randomly selected flowering cherry root samples were plated on Rhizoctonia semi-selective medium to determine the percent recovery of R. solani from root samples. y Values are the means of three replicates; treatments followed by the same letter within a column are not significantly different at P ≤ 0.05.
