Sensitivity of PCR and cLAMP techniques and evaluation of the persistence of Xoo in water and soil samples after inoculation for 8 weeks and 5 months, respectively. Assessment of the persistence of Xoo inoculation for 8 weeks at a concentration of 2.5 to 2.5 × 108 CFU/mL along with the negative control (NC) by PCR and cLAMP techniques using Xoo4009 and LpXoo4009 primers. (A), Xoo in soil samples following Xoo inoculation for 20 weeks at concentrations starting at 0.125 to 0.125 × 108 CFU/g and the negative control (NC) (B). The grouping of gels was cropped from different gels and their original images are in Supplementary Information 1.
