Response of organogenesis-derived plants to inoculation with an infectious geminivirus clone EACMV-K201. a Percentage of CMD symptomatic plants of organogenesis-derived (ORG-TME 7) and wild-type CMD2-type cultivar TME 7. b Average CMD symptom severity scores (scale 0–5) on organogenesis-derived and wild-type TME 7. c Percentage of CMD symptomatic plants of organogenesis-derived (ORG-TME 204) and wild-type CMD2-type cultivar TME 204. d Average CMD symptom severity scores (scale 0–5) on organogenesis-derived and wild-type plants of TME 204. Plant stems were cut back at 48 days after biolistic inoculation and CMD was assessed on new leaf growth. Breaks in the x axis indicate a lapse in shoot regrowth after cut-back. n = 16 for ORG-TME 7 (resistant), n = 6 for ORG-TME 7 (susceptible), n = 7 for ORG-TME 204 (resistant), n = 4 for ORG-TME 204 (susceptible)
