Differential effects of NbMKP1 on the accumulation of different potexviruses. The Luc‐ and NbMKP1‐silenced N. benthamiana plants were inoculated with Foxtail mosaic virus (FoMV) or Potato virus X (PVX). The relative accumulations of the viral CP in the inoculated leaves were analyzed by western blotting at 4 days after inoculation (Panel A, FoMV; Panel B, PVX), while that of the PVX genomes in the inoculated leaves were assayed by northern blotting at 2 days after inoculation (Panel C). The statistical data shown in the western and northern blotting assays are the means of three and two independent experiments (N), respectively. There were four plantlets (n) per trial condition.
