Collapse of resistance in infected R plants where the Permease I gene has been silenced. a: R tomato plants 8 weeks after TYLCV inoculation; Ri:0, not silenced; Ri:TRV-Per, silenced. Note that Ri:0 do not present symptoms and yield fruits, in comparison Ri:TRV-Per are symptomatic and present inhibited growth. b: Relative amounts of virus (measured by qPCR) in infected tomato plants 3 and 28 days after inoculation; Si:0 is S plants, Ri:0 is R plants and Ri:TRV-Per is R plants where the Permease I gene has been silenced. The amount of virus in Ri:0 plants at 28 dpi was considered as 1.
