Elicitation of NaPLP by A. alternata in WT plants. NaPLP transcripts were measured by real-time PCR in the source-sink transition leaves (0 leaves) of WT plants treated with mock or with A. alternata at 1 and 3 days post inoculation (dpi). All transcriptional levels were normalized with a housekeeping gene NaActin Ⅱ. Values are means ± SE for five biological replicates. Asterisks indicate the level of significant difference between WT and transgenic plants with the same treatments (Student's t-test: ***, p < 0.005).
