Correlation coefficients (r) between epicuticular physiochemical properties and the number of rotaviruses adsorbed on the produce surfaces.

Contact angle, surface roughness, No. of stomata, stoma length, and wax extraction from the produce surface. N = 24 except for the correlations involving numbers and lengths of stomata (N = 21). Pearson’s correlation coefficients (r) were calculated by mean values of each variables from each cultivar, and the r values in bold are significantly correlated at P < 0.05.
