18:2 Treatment causes cell death in B. distachyon leaf blades. A, Phenotypes of wild-type Bd21-3 detached leaf blades treated with 200 μm 18:2 for 48 h. Bars = 0.5 mm. B, Quantification of electrolyte leakage as an indicator for cell death during 18:2 treatment. Three-week-old detached leaf blades were inoculated with water containing different concentrations of 18:2, and conductivity changes were measured at different time points. Each value represents the mean and sd of three replicates per experiment.
