Figure 2. Enhanced resistance of OsDR10-suppressed plants to Xoo strain PXO61 was associated with suppressed OsDR10 expression.

Minghui 63 is wild type (WT). Bars represent mean (three technical replicates)±standard deviation. (A) T₀ transgenic plants with significantly enhanced (P<0.01) bacterial resistance showed significantly reduced (P<0.01) accumulation of OsDR10 transcripts. Figures indicate the lesion area caused by PXO61 infection. 0 d, samples were collected at 30 min after inoculation. (B) The enhanced resistance cosegregated with suppressed expression of OsDR10 in T₁ (D27RMH17) and T₂ (D27RMH3-5) families. Asterisks indicate a significant difference in lesion area (P<0.01) or in OsDR10 expression level (P<0.05) between transgenic and wild-type plants.
