Male and female plant preference (P2m and P2f) resulting from the two-choice experiments

Two-choice test between <i>P</i>. <i>infestans</i> inoculated and uninoculated potato.

<p><i>S</i>. <i>littoralis</i> oviposition preference between: (A) inoculated and uninoculated cv. Desiree, n = 15 paired plants (B) inoculated and uninoculated clone A01-22, n = 17 paired plants. At day four after release of insects, oviposited eggs were collected and weighed for each plant. Tukey pairwise comparisons was used for statistical analysis with significant difference set to α = 0.05. Bars indicate mean (±SE) percentage of eggs laid.</p

Whole plant infection of cv. Desiree and clone A01-22 (cv. Desiree transformed with <i>Rpi-blb1</i>) with <i>P</i>. <i>infestans</i>.

<p>Six week old plants of cv. Desiree and clone A01-22 were transferred to an infection chamber set to 100% relative humidity. After 6 h, plants were either left uninoculated (A & C) or inoculated with <i>P</i>. <i>infestans</i> (B & D). At 24 h after inoculation plants were placed in a net cage in the infection chamber that was set to 90% relative humidity. Pictures were taken at 5 days after inoculation.</p

Two-choice test between cv. Desiree and clone A01-22 plants.

<p><i>S</i>. <i>littoralis</i> was released into net cages to choose between (A) Uninoculated cv. Desiree and clone A01-22 plants, n = 11; and (B) <i>P</i>. <i>infestans</i> inoculated cv. Desiree and clone A01-22 plants, n = 13. Oviposited eggs within 4 days after the insect release were collected and weighed for each plant. Tukey pairwise comparisons was used for statistical analysis and significant difference set to α = 0.05. Bars indicate mean (±SE) percentage of eggs laid.</p

<i>S</i>. <i>littoralis</i> larvae performance test.

<p>First instar larvae of <i>S</i>. <i>littoralis</i> was fed on detached leaves of either <i>P</i>. <i>infestans</i> inoculated or uninoculated cv. Desiree, and Cotton or on <i>P</i>. <i>infestans</i> mycelium. Larvae were weighed every 48 hours. At day 17 all the larvae were transformed in to pupa. The experiment was repeated twice with similar results.</p
