N. attenuata signalling genes differentially induced by larvae of M. sexta and S. exigua. Transcript accumulation (mean ± SEM) of selected genes known to be key regulators in different plant signalling pathways: (a) threonine deaminase (NaTD: Na_454_03285), (b) aminocyclo-propanecarboxylate oxidase (NaACO2: Na_454_06634), (c) transcription factor WRKY6 (Na_454_14052), (d) SA receptor (NaNPR1: Na_454_12995) in plants fed by either S. exigua (Se, dark bars) or M. sexta (Ms, light bars) larvae. The plants were previously oviposited by either of the two species or not (−). Transcript accumulation relative to untreated plants was determined by real-time qPCR and normalized to β-actin and EF1α as reference genes. Letters indicate significant differences at P < 0.05 according to linear mixed-effects models with the different herbivory treatments as fixed factors and replicate blocks as random factor followed by a Tukey post-hoc test (N = 9–10).
