Reduced disease incidence in Xcc-contaminated seeds after CAC-717 treatment. Cabbage seeds contaminated with Xcc were treated with distilled water or CAC-717 at 25 °C for 30 min. The seeds were then cultured at 25 °C for 5 days, and the incidence of disease in the seeds was evaluated as described in Methods. Data shown as mean ± SEM of triplicates and are representative of two independent experiments; * indicates a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the two groups by Mann–Whitney U-test.
