Fig. 3

Scanning electron microscopy observations showing the heterogeneity of A. thaliana seed contamination with the immersion method compared to the droplet method, white circles highlighting A. brassicicola conidia. The white scale bars show 50 μm. a Seed treated with sterile water. b Seed inoculated with the immersion method (105 conidia. mL−1) showing no A. brassicicola conidia on its surface. c Seed inoculated with the immersion method (105 conidia. mL−1) presenting a cluster of conidia on its surface, d zoom on the conidia cluster. e Seed inoculated with the droplet method (104 conidia. mL−1) presenting 2 conidia on its surface, f zoom on the conidia
