Systemic colonisation of L er and Bur by V. longisporum in the course of plant development. Percentage of colonised plants (closed symbols) and fungal DNA-content in apical shoot segments (open symbols) in Ler (circles) and Bur (squares) at different developmental stages. Developmental stages: 3 = 1-3 flowers open, 4 = 4-10 flowers open, 5 = more than 10 flowers open, 6 = up to 3 siliques mature, 7 = 4-6 siliques mature, 8 = up to 50% of siliques on main shoot mature. N = 4 (Bur) or 5 (Ler), bars denote standard deviations.
