Figure 2

Distribution of bacterial genera and relative total load from zucchini female flower pistils in trial A and trial B after 0 (black bars), 4 (white bars), 8 (diagonal stripes bars), and 11 (grey bars) days of cold storage at 4°C. Bacterial genera are defined as: 1, Acinetobacter spp.; 2, Serratia spp.; 3, Klebsiella spp.; 4, Pantoea spp.; 5, Erwinia spp.; 6, Arthrobacter spp.; 7, Staphylococcus spp.; 8, Weissella spp.; 9, Pseudoclavibacter spp.; 10, Enterobacter spp.; 11, Pseudomonas spp.; 12, Bacillus spp.
