FIGURE 2.

The enhanced susceptibility of the Arabidopsis eif4e1^KOmutant extends to the CDN1 isolate of turnip mosaic virus (TuMV). (a) Phenotypic comparison of representative plants on TuMV CDN1 infection 21 days postinoculation (dpi). (b) Rosette fresh weight analysis of plants inoculated with TuMV CDN1 at 21 dpi. The aerial part was weighed for five wild‐type mock‐inoculated plants and at least 13 TuMV CDN1‐inoculated plants of each genotype. (c) Accumulation analysis of TuMV CDN1 at 21 dpi. Viral accumulation was detected by double antibody sandwich‐ELISA for TuMV coat protein (CP) on five wild‐type mock‐inoculated and at least 13 TuMV CDN1‐inoculated plants of each genotype. Different letters depict significantly different groups identified by Kruskal–Wallis statistical tests at p < .05
