Table 2. Expression levels of four chosen genes in leaves of healthy and inoculated plants of wheat variety Bohemia and healthy V2-49-17 and Scorpion varieties.

The expression of four genes (B2H2, ICS, PAL, and PR2) were detected in healthy and inoculated Bohemia, V2-49-17 variety with yellow endosperm, and cv. Scorpion with blue aleurone layer in different treatment conditions (ergosterol, aescin, sodium bicarbonate, prochloraz and potassium iodide) and indicated as a fold difference (FD) to control (treatment water).

Significant fold differences between water control and experimental treatments are indicated by asterisks (P < 0.05 (*); P < 0.01 (**); P < 0.001 (***); P < 0.0001 (****). The statistical analyses were carried out separately within each gene and treatment.
