Fig. 1From: Comparison of non-subjective relative fungal biomass measurements to quantify the Leptosphaeria maculans—Brassica napus interactionL. maculans fungal biomass assays of 12 dpi cotyledons (Experiment 1). L. maculans pathogen load measured using the WAC assay A and ddPCR B at 12 dpi in cotyledons of six B. napus cultivars inoculated with isolate D3. Mocks were not processed in the WAC analysis (A, na not available). C Linear regression analysis set at 95% confidence level between the WAC and ddPCR fungal biomass assays revealed an adjusted R2 value of 0.9965 indicating a strong correlation between the results obtained from the WAC and ddPCR fungal biomass assay measurements. Standard error bars included in the regression and bar diagrams represent 3 biological replicates for the WAC assay (A) (P < 0.0005) and 10 for the ddPCR B (P < 0.003).
