Figure 1

Effect of different doses of phenylboronic acid (volume concentration, %) on mycelial growth of pathogen Alternaria alternata on potato dextrose agar after 5 days of incubation at 25 °C

Table 1

Mycelial-growth area of Alternaria alternata after five days of incubation on potato dextrose with different phenylboronic acid volume concentrations (%) at 25 °C

PBA concentration (%)00.040.050.060.070.080.090.10.20.3
Mean of colony area ± SD17.7±0.5b0.33±0.1a0a0a0a0a0a0a0a0a

[i] Values are presented as means ± SD. Means with the same superscript letters across columns are not significantly different (one-way ANOVA; Tukey’s test, P<0.05)
