Extended Data Fig. 6: Metaclone representing the effector allele overlap between PtoDC3000 and PmaES4326, McDC&ES[7], fails to match fitness of PtoDC3000 and the non-ETI-eliciting metaclone D36E::McDC[35].
From: Cooperative virulence via the collective action of secreted pathogen effectors
D36E::McDC&ES[7] shows a fitness significantly closer to that of the effectorless polymutant D36E::EV and does not restore the growth levels typical of their wildtype parental strain PtoDC3000 or its non-ETI eliciting metaclone D36E::McDC[35]. In-planta fitness was quantified 6 dpi for 5 biological replicates per treatment and 4 independent infection replicates. Elements in boxplots represent the median, 25th and 75th percentiles, and 1.5 * inter-quantile ranges. Comparisons were performed via one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey-Kramer HSD using a 95% confidence interval was performed separately for 4 independent experiments (Source data and p-values in Supplementary Data 1).
