(A) Variance to mean ratio ±SE by treatment. If 0 < variance-to-mean ratio (VMR) < 1 distribution is regularly spaced, if VMR = 1 distribution is random, if 1 < VMR distribution is clustered. A Welch analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed, and no significant difference was found between the distribution pattern of the conidia in the various formulations, yet a significant difference was found in the variance (Bartlett’s test: F = 19.5792, p-value < 0.0001). (B) Mean numbers of conidia ±SE counted in the various microscopic fields used to calculate VMR. A Welch ANOVA was employed, and no significant difference was found between treatments, yet a significant difference was found in variance (Bartlett’s test: F = 13.9549, p-value = 0.0002).
