The HR-like cell death in transgenic plants induced by the overexpression of GhMKK5. (A) HR-like cell death signs in the leaves of OE plants. (B) Trypan blue staining for cell death in the leaves of transgenic plants. (C) The size of lesions in the leaves with HR-like cell death. (D) The relative levels of staining for cell death in the leaves of transgenic plants. OE, overexpression. Data are the means ±SE of three independent experiments (n=15). Different italic letters indicate highly significant differences (P < 0.01) according to Duncan’s multiple range test. Vec, vector control; #2, #4, #5, particular overexpressing lines.
