Over-expression of TaJAZ1ΔJas results in up-regulation of TaPR1/2 expression and ROS accumulation in response to Bgt. (a) qRT-PCR analysis showing the expression levels of TaPR1 and TaPR2 in the Bgt-infected bread wheat leaves of KN199 and independent pUbi:TaJAZ1ΔJas transgenic lines. (b) qRT-PCR analysis showing the expression levels of TaPOX2 and TaSOD in the Bgt-infected bread wheat leaves of KN199 and pUbi:TaJAZ1ΔJas transgenic lines. (c) H2O2 contents in the bread wheat leaves of KN199 and independent pUbi:TaJAZ1ΔJas transgenic lines treated with Bgt. Samples were collected at 24 hpi. Error bars denote ± SD (n = 3). Asterisks (** and *) above the bars represent significant differences between the control and each treatment at P < 0.01 and P < 0.05, respectively (Student’s t test).
