Resistance assay against phytopathogenic fungus B. cinerea. (a) Phenotype of transgenic plants after inoculation with mycelium of B. cinerea during 7 days. (b) Percentage of area leaf infection in control and transformed tobacco lines. Leaf damage by B. cinerea infection was significantly different from the control with a value at p < 0.0001. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences. Error bars indicate standard deviation of means (SD). Three independent replicates were performed for each experiment.
