Figure 6. rin4 knockout lines do not re-open their stomata after exposure to virulent Pst DC3000.

Figure 6

Pst DC3000 induces stomatal closure at 1 h (A) and re-opening after 3 h (B) on Col 0 but not rin4 knockout lines. (C) The rpm1/rps2/rin4 mutant displays enhanced resistance to spray inoculation with Pst DC3000. 4-wk-old rpm1/rps2 and rpm1/rps2/rin4 plants were syringe infiltrated or spray inoculated with Pst DC3000 and leaves were subjected to growth curve analyses 4 d post-inoculation. Bacterial growth curve results are shown as the mean (n = 6), including standard deviation. These experiments are representative of at least three independent replicates. In this and all other figures, results are shown as the mean (n = 50–80) stomata ±SEM and statistical differences were detected with a two-tailed t-test.
