FIGURE 1.
Relative transcript abundances of defense-related genes in Tetranychus evansi and Tetranychus urticae infested Micro-Tom leaflets at 7 days post-infestation. PI-IIc (A) and PR-1a (B) transcript levels were relative to actin. Uninfested leaflets were used as controls. The bars represent the means ( ± SE) and are scaled to the lowest mean by putting this to 1. Bars annotated with different letters were significantly different according to Fisher’s LSD test (P < 0.05) after ANOVA, n = 5.
