Resistance of transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing HMLX56 to Botrytis cinerea and Pst DC3000. (A) Symptoms observed 4 DAI on the leaves of 4-week-old Arabidopsis inoculated with 1-mm-diameter plugs of B. cinerea. (B) Symptoms were quantified at 4 DAI by lesion diameter. (C) Disease symptoms in Arabidopsis leaves caused by Pst DC3000 infection. (D) Chlorophyll amounts in HMLX56 overexpressors and wild-type Arabidopsis plants after Pst DC3000 infection. (E) Growth of Pst DC3000 strains in inoculated Arabidopsis leaves. The bacterial numbers were calculated at 3 days after inoculation and represented as colony-forming units (CFU) per gram leaf tissue. Each infection assay was performed in triplicate. Each value is the mean ± SD of three replicates. Different letters above the columns indicate significant differences (P < 0.05) according to Duncan’s multiple range test. WT, wild-type; OE1-3, transgenic Arabidopsis lines overexpressing HMLX56.
