Enhanced consumption of leaf material and accelerated development of S. flava larvae in P. syringae-infected leaves are not found in the asFBP1.1 and aos mutants of Arabidopsis infected with P. syringae. A) Mean leaf area mined (LAM) by S. flava larvae reared in wild-type (WT; Col-0) and mutant Arabidopsis leaves pre-infected with Psm ES4326 cfa6 compared to LAM by larvae reared in mock-inoculated leaves. Larvae were transferred from WT nurse plants in the second instar into the experimental plants and allowed to feed for 48 hours. Error bars represent standard error of the mean. B) Percentage of S. flava pupae having eclosed as adults over time shown in days after the day of oviposition in the nurse plants. Letters in (A) indicate statistically significant differences (two-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey’s HSD tests, P < 0.05). The asterisk in (B) indicates a statistically significant difference between mock-inoculated Col-0 WT plants and the other treatment groups (two-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey’s HSD tests, P < 0.05). N = 15–20 plants per treatment group.
