Silencing of N. benthamiana PDS gene by SYNV VIGS vectors. (A) Symptoms and silencing phenotypes of plants infected by SYNV vector expressing a sense (SYNV-sPDS), antisense (SYNV-asPDS), or hairpin RNA (SYNV-hpPDS) of a portion of the PDS gene at 20, 30 and 40 dpsi. (B) qRT-PCR analysis of the relative mRNA levels of PDS in systemically infected leaf tissues at 40 dpi. Data are the means of three independently infected plants (n = 3). Error bars show the standard deviation (± SD). Different letters represent significant differences at p < 0.05 according to one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.
