A. Germination of conidia at different time points in the control group. B. Germination of conidia at different time points in the treatment group. At 4 hours, 85% of appressorium of the control group was formed. After 8 hours, endlessly extended and unusual mycelium growth were observed in the treatment group. After 24 hours, the appressorium of the treatment group still did not form. However, after 48 hours, 7% of appressorium was observed in the treatment group. After 60 hours, the appressorium formation rate of the treatment group reached only 10%, while that of the control group reached 85%.
