fabH1 is required for the full virulence of Xoo. a Lesion lengths on 5 weeks old rice leaves inoculated with the Xoo strains after 2 weeks. b Calculated lesion lengths were recorded from the Xoo strains inoculated rice leaves in a growth chamber. Values are the means ± SDs from three independent experiments. The asterisks above the error bars indicate significant differences compared with the wild-type strain (^**P < 0.01). All experiments were repeated three times with similar results
