Pathogenicity assays of ΔVdChs7, ΔVdChs5, and ΔVdChs5Chs7 on cotton. a Disease symptoms of infected cotton plants at 30 days post inoculation (dpi). b Stem transverse sections of infected cotton plants at 30 dpi. Scale bars, 0.1 mm. c Stem longitudinal section of infected cotton plants at 30 dpi. Scale bars, 0.3 mm. d Fungal recovery from infected cotton stems at 30 dpi. e The disease index of infected cotton plants at 30 dpi. f The disease grade of infected cotton plants at 30 dpi. The disease index and disease grades were calculated with three replicates of 24 cotton plants. Data represent means and standard deviation from three independent biological replicates. *** indicates significant differences at P < 0.001 as calculated with Student’s t-test
