Average Severity of Brown Spot on Rice by Treatment. Brown spot symptoms were rated on a scale of 0–9 (the higher the number, the higher the disease severity) and the Kruskal-Wallis test determined there was no significance. H(3) = 2.0556, p = 0.3578. Untreated control is indicated by the green bar. The blue bars are ThSM3a treatments 1 and 2 which represent low (500 CFU/seed) and high dose (1500 CFU/seed), respectively. Plots were randomly distributed throughout the field. Plots consisted of seven 4.6 m rows, and spaced 17.8 cm between rows and replicated four times per treatment. Kruskal–Wallis as a non-parametric test was utilized as the symptom variable is categorical data. Trials performed by Texas A&M AgriLife Research.
