Table 2. Quantification of the percentages of leaf areas covered with Pst uredia at 14 dpi, when the transcription of TaGLY1 and TaGLI1 was repressed.

Treatment	Percentages of leaf areas covered with Pst (%)
BSMV: γ	ND
Local leaves
BSMV: TaGLY1	6.65 ± 0.79 b
BSMV: TaGLI1	4.50 ± 0.23 c
BSMV: TaGLY1/TaGLI1	12.60 ± 0.15 a
Distal leaves
BSMV: TaGLY1	6.67 ± 0.24 b
BSMV: TaGLI1	6.16 ± 0.35 b
BSMV: TaGLY1/TaGLI1	7.04 ±0.52 b

Wheat local and distal leaves were infected with BSMV:γ, BSMV:TaGLY1, BSMV:TaGLI1, or BSMV:TaGLY1/TaGLI1, followed by CYR23 inoculation.

Percentage of leaf areas covered with Pst was categorized using color range tool of Adobe Photoshop software.

ANOVA was performed to determine the differences between each treatment. Superscripts with the same letter indicate that values are not significantly different at P < 0.01.

ND = not detected.
