TSWV-cp expression in M82 and H8 plants. Tomato M82 and H8 plants infected with TSWV inoculum, and relative transcript levels normalized to the control gene Actin. At 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hpi (hours post infection) and 7, 14, 21 and 28 dpi (days post infection), the expression levels in the leaf tissues were assessed (days post infection). The CK plants are shown by blue bars, while the M82 and H8 plants are represented by red bars. The mean values (±SD) from three biological replicates are provided as relative changes: (a) TSWV-cp relative expression in M82 plants compared to CK; (b) TSWV-cp relative expression in H8 plants compared to CK; and (c) TSWV-cp confirmation in Yangling, China, isolates 234 bp. Asterisk indicates statistically significant; *** p = 0.001, **** p = 0.0001, and ns = non-significant are the p values.
