Supplementary Figure 7: Disease progress of bacterial wilt on the transplanted tomato cultivars.

Distributions of the disease indices of transplanted tomato cultivars were presented by box plots. Four box plots show the disease indices at four different time points (6, 8, 10, and 12 days) from Fig. 2b. The bottom and top edges of the box indicate the value corresponds to lowest 25 % and the value corresponds to highest 75%, respectively. The bottom and top error whiskers indicate the minimum and maximum values, respectively. Whiskers are the range of the data extended to the extreme data point of 1.5× interquartile range from the edge of the box. Bold horizontal line in the box indicates the median value of the disease indices. Each data point represents the mean disease index for three independent experiments (n = 18 in total for susceptible plants, n = 20 in total for resistant plants for each treatment). Open circles indicate the outlier values in each data set. Statistical significances between the transplanted tomato cultivars were evaluated by Wilcoxon signed ranks test using IBM SPSS 23 software.
