Morphology of transgenic N. benthamiana lines. a The T₀ N. benthamiana IX.1-OE-10 plant, but not the T₀ EV-2 plant displayed cell death. Ten-week-old plants were photographed. b The T₁ N. benthamiana IX.1-OE-10 plant, but not the EV-2 plant developed cell death. Six-week-old plants were photographed. c T₁ progeny of the IX.1-OE-10 line harboring AtLecRK-IX.1 (+) is smaller in size than the T₁ progeny without AtLecRK-IX.1 (−). Six-week-old plants were photographed. d Germination of seeds harvested from untransformed and transgenic N. benthamiana plants. Six seeds were sown in each pot. Two-week-old seedlings were photographed
