a Female A. chinensis var. deliciosa, b female A. chinensis var. chinensis, c male A. chinensis var. deliciosa, and d male A. chinensis var. chinensis. Inoculation was performed by spraying flowers with a Psa (CFBP7286) suspension at a concentration of 106 cells mL−1. Standard error is shown (n = 6 for each time point). Different letters indicate significant differences among flower parts within each variety at LSD test (P = 0.05). In female flowers, asterisk indicates significant differences of Psa population between the same flower part of A. chinensis var. chinensis and A. chinensis var. deliciosa (LSD test, P = 0.05). The same analysis performed on male flowers did not reveal any significant difference among varieties
