Fig 10. Exogenous feeding of MGDG and DGDG impairs rice disease resistance.

Fig 10

(A) Two-week-old seedling leaves were cultured in liquid medium supplemented with MGDG or DGDG (100 μM with 0.1% Tween-20) for 24 hours. The treated plants were extensively washed and then inoculated with Xoo (strain PXO99A). Lesion lengths of MGDG and DGDG-fed plants were measured at 10 dpi with three biological replicates (> 10 plants each replicate). Data are shown as means ± SD from three biological replicates. (B) Bacterial growth in the MGDG and DGDG-fed plants at 0, 3 and 6 dpi, with mock treatment as control. Data are shown as means ± SD from three biological replicates. (C-E) Relative expression levels of PR genes PR1a (C), PR5 (D) and PR10 (E) in MGDG/DGDG treated leaves at 0 and 48 hpi. Data are shown as means ± SD from three biological replicates (n = 3). Student’s t-test, *P<0.05, **P < 0.01 (A to E).
