Figure 4. The Gbve1 gene endowed Verticillium wilt resistance in cotton.

Figure 4

(A). The cotton chlI gene was used as a positive control with a phenotype of yellow-colored leave after VIGS in cotton (Left: 3 weeks; Right: blossom stage). (B). The phenotypes of H7124 under infection by V. dahliae isolates V991 and BP2 after VIGS with CLCrV containing a fragment of Gbve1 gene. Photos were taken at 42 d after V. dahliae inoculation (55 d after VIGS). (C). The disease indices Gbve1 gene-silence lines. The results were presented as means±SE from three replications with at least 25 plants per replication. (D). Expression levels of the Gbve1 gene and its homolog (the Gbve gene) in the silenced lines.
