Deleting Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm) expansin gene CmEXLX2 accelerates tomato fruit lesion development (A) Lesion and halo sizes on tomato fruit (n=100) inoculated with the three Cmm strains. Fruit lesion distances followed by the same letter are not significantly different. Differences among treatments for mean lesion size were determined with PROC GLIMMIX (P<0.05) followed by Tukey-Kramer posttest (P<0.01). (B) Representative images of tomato fruit lesions are shown below: Cmm0317 (wildtype), ΔCmEXLX2 (expansin mutant), and CΔCmEXLX2+ (complement). Scale bar: 1 mm. Error bars correspond to the standard error.
