MYC2 Represses PLT1 Expression, as Revealed by Transient Assays of N. benthamiana leaves.
(A) Transient expression assays showing that MYC2 represses the expression of PLT1. Representative images of N. benthamiana leaves 72 h after infiltration are shown. The bottom panel indicates the infiltrated constructs and treatments.
(B) Quantitative analysis of luminescence intensity in (A). Five independent determinations were assessed. Error bars represent sd. Asterisks denote Student’s t test significance compared with control plants: **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001.
(C) qRT-PCR analysis of MYC2 expression in the infiltrated leaf areas shown in (A). Total RNAs were extracted from leaves of N. benthamiana coinfiltrated with the constructs. Five independent determinations were assessed. Error bars represent sd.
