Oidium neolycopersici development 72 h after the artificial inoculation. Approximately 100 infection units (IU = fungal spore producing a germination tube) per genotype were observed and the number of papillae and haustoria were counted. Subsequently, the percentage of IU showing a papilla or haustorium was calculated.
