Evidence for infection failure in the first 24 h post inoculation on resistant fruit. a Scanning electron micrographs of inoculated 8 and 16 dpp fruit. tr – trichrome; ls – live spore; ap – appressoria; gt – germ tube; bgt – burst germ tube; bs – burst spore; deflated spores (ds), deflated germ tubes (dgt), and deflated hyphae (dh). Bottom right scale bar for all frames, except for insets. b High-throughput in vivo analysis of pathogen growth on fruit plugs. For inoculated and control treatments, each point is a mean of 36 and 12 replicates, respectively. Error bars are +/− SEM
