Regulation of conidial germination of f. sp. by hydrogen peroxide (HO). (A) Germinated conidia of f. sp. isolate SFW-10 on glass slides after treatment with 20 mM of ROS-related chemicals HO and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (3-AT) were observed under a light microscope. (Scale bars: 25 μm). (B) Relative conidial germination(%) regulated by the chemical treatments was shown as a percentage of germinated conidia treated with different doses (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10 and 20 mM) of HO and 3-AT compared to control. Error bars represent standard errors of means of five independent experimental replications. Means followed by the same letter are not significantly different at 5% level by a least significant difference test. The same letter above the bars represented no significant difference between treatments.
