Botryodiplodia sp. - Crops for the Future

The evaluation of the cross-inoculation with Annona muricata showed that both controls have
the same or a higher severity as the pathogens (Figure 33). On the fifth day of the experiment
the severities of the pathogens Bmu I and Bsq III were higher than the ones of the others and
of the controls.

As it is seen in Figure 34, the standard deviations of the results of the experiments with
Annona squamosa fruits are high. Thus the results allow no exact interpretation.
