Generation and identification of VmEp1 deletion and complementation mutants. (A) Gene replacement strategy of VmEp1. Primer pairs 1F/2R and 3F/4R used for WT amplicon. The hygromycin-resistance cassette (hph) is denoted by the large red arrow. Primer binding sites are indicated by black arrows (see Supplementary Table S2 for primer sequences). (B) Identification of VmEp1 knockout mutants by PCR analysis. 1–4 primer pairs: (1) VmEP1-5F/6R (targeted gene), (2) VmEP1-7F/H855R upstream region), (3) VmEP1-H856F/8R (downstream region), and (4) H850/H852 (hph cassette). (C) Southern blot hybridization analysis of VmEp1 mutants using primer H850/H852. (D) Identification of VmEp1 complementation mutants by PCR analysis using primer pair VmEP1-5F/6R.
