Schematic illustration of the experimental design (a) and stages of aerial symptoms in ‘Dusa’ plants inoculated with R. necatrix (b). Control plants were watered to field capacity (Fc) throughout the experiment and water stressed plants were subjected to controlled substrate drying-up until they reached 50% of Fc (mild-WS) and 25% of Fc (severe-WS), respectively (t1). Afterwards, all plants were fully irrigated to assess drought recovery response (t2) and to carry out the pathogenicity test with R. necatrix
