Effect of BdPAL silencing on Fusarium disease resistance. (A) Comparison of the foliar necrotic lesions that developed on wounded leaves of WT Bd21-3 and BdPAL RNAi1-1 following F. culmorum infection. The image shows necrotic lesions 7 days post-infection (dpi). n=32. (B) Comparison of the root necrotic lesion sizes developed on WT and BdPAL RNAi1-1 roots following F. culmorum infection. 22<n<24. Image shows seedlings 9 dpi. Asterisks in (A) and (B) represent Student’s t-test P-value <0.001, comparing BdPAL RNAi1-1 with the WT for a given time point. (C, D) Comparison of the effect of ACC (C) and AVG (D) treatments on the necrotic lesion sizes developed on WT and BdPAL RNAi1-1 roots, 7 d following F. culmorum infection. 20<n<24. For (C, D), asterisks represent Student’s t-test P-values <0.001, which relate to the comparison of each treatment with its corresponding untreated control. For all graphs, error bars represent the standard error (SE).
