Inoculation of sugarcane variety B-4362 with wild type and hrpE mutant strains of H. rubrisubalbicans. 120 days after germination, 5 sugarcane plants variety B-4362 were inoculated with 10 mM of MgSO4 (a), H. rubrisubalbicans M1 (0.5 – 1.0x108 cells) (b) and H. rubrisubalbicans TSE (0.5 – 1.0x108 cells) (c). The photos were taken 15 days after inoculation (135 days after germination). The arrows indicate bacterial inoculation site and symptoms of the mottled stripe disease (b). The scale bars are shown (1 cm).
