  1. Four-week-old cucumber plants (with two true fully expanded leaves) were sprayed with H2O, 10 μM BTH, 50 μM BTH or left untreated. The second true leaf was infected withC. lagenarium5 days later (ten infection sites per leaf). The percentages of spreading lesions (i.e. lesions showing a larger size than the initial inoculated area) observed 2 weeks after inoculation withC. lagenariumwere calculated on the basis of 14 plants/treatment (experiment 1) and 16 plants/treatment (experiment 2) (means +/- standard deviations).
