X. innexi supernatant does not suppress prophenoloxidase activation. Percent proPO system activation ± SEM in hemolymph incubated with control medium (dotted bars) or cell-free supernatant from X. innexi or X. nematophila that was either untreated (white bars) or boiled for 10 min. at 95 °C (black bars). Different letters indicate significant difference (p < 0.05, one-way ANOVA Friedman test followed by Dunn’s post test) was observed between strains when compared for proPO inhibition
