Figure 2. Xylem sap metabolites consumed during R. solanacearum GMI1000 growth.

Figure 2

(A) Sap was harvested from infected tomato plants at wilt onset. Pooled sap was incubated with R. solanacearum or water for 3 h before GC-MS metabolomic analysis (n=4 pools of 7 plants each). (B) Partial least squares analysis of sap composition metabolomic data. Shaded areas indicate 95% confidence region. (C) Xylem metabolites altered by R. solanacearum growth, fold-change relative to sap incubated without R. solanacearum (t-test, FDR<0.1) Bar color shows R. solanacearum growth on each metabolite as sole carbon or nitrogen (“N”) source.
