  1. Each data point represents total number of plants from two replications
  2. aInfectivity was determined based on the number of infected plants/total number of plants inoculated
  3. bAverage  % infection of every transfer for each SMV strain
  4. cAverage  % infection of two transfers for each SMV strain
