Disease incidence on cantaloupe fruits following inoculation with pathogens.

Fruit rinds were inoculated with E. tracheiphila or a mixture of E. tracheiphila and S. enterica and sampled at 9 and 24 DPI. Bars indicate percentages of cantaloupe fruit showing watersoaking; there were no significant differences between day 9 and 24 for either treatment (Et or SP+Et) (Fisher's exact one-tailed test, P = 0.64 and P = 0.53, respectively).
