Concentration-dependent effect of foliar application of SPT on H. schachtii development. (A) Representative images of H. schachtii females in interaction with A. thaliana roots after the leaves of the respective plants have been treated with 25 mM, 50 mM and 100 mM SPT. The black bar represents 500 µm. (B) Concentration-dependent effect of foliar SPT application on H. schachtii. The data are given in average ± SD. Anova on ranks for males P = 0.002, Tukey Test, N = 10; Anova on ranks for females P < 0.001; Tukey Test, N = 10; Anova on ranks for arrested P = 0.001, Tukey Test N = 10; Anova for sizes P < 0.001, Tukey Test, N = 30. Please note that males, females, arrested nematodes and female sizes were analyzed for statistical significance separately.
