Measurements of the six quantitative traits used to rank the aggressiveness level of the five Cercospora zeina isolates

This dataset includes latent period, infection efficiency, lesion size, disease severity and sporulation capacity measurements. Sporulation capacity was measured by the number of conidiophores per stomata and measurements were taken from 10 stomata within a lesion arranged into three rows. Therefore, all measurements were done from a total of 30 stomata per lesion. Disease severity was done using 0-6 scale with the scale of zero giving to no infection and scale of six to the most severe disease symptoms.
