Enhanced Resistance of PR10- and LRR1/PR10-OX Transgenic Arabidopsis Plants to Pst Infection.

(A) Disease symptoms on leaves 72 h after inoculation.

(B) Bacterial growth in the leaves of wild-type and transgenic plants.

(C) Micrographs of the leaves stained with trypan blue (left) 24 h after infiltration and quantification of electrolyte leakage (right) from leaf discs. Bars = 500 μm.

(D) Micrographs of the leaves stained with DAB (left) 24 h after inoculation and intensity of the reddish color from DAB images (right) to assess H₂O₂ production. Bars = 500 μm.

(B) to (D) Data represent the means ± sd from three independent experiments. Different letters indicate significant differences, as statistically analyzed by Fisher’s protected LSD test (P < 0.05).
