IRcdpk4/5 plants have elevated defensive secondary metabolites and enhanced defense against M. sexta. Wild type (WT) and IRcdpk4/5 (line IRcdpk4/5-1 and IRcdpk4/5-2) were wounded with a pattern wheel, and 20 μL of water or M. sexta OS were immediately applied to wounds (W + W and W + OS, respectively). Contents (mean ± se) of HGL-DTGs (A) and CP (B), and activity (mean ± se) of TPIs (C) were determined in samples harvested 3 d after treatments (nontreated plants served as controls). D, Masses (mean ± se) of M. sexta larvae grown on WT and IRcdpk4/5 plants. Asterisks indicate significant differences between WT and IRcdpk4/5 plants (n = 5 for A, B, and C; n = 30 for D; Student’s t test; *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001).
