Transcript abundance of selected immunity-associated genes in Rio Grande (RG)-PtoR (wild-type) and Δnrd1 mutant plants when inoculated with DC3000ΔavrPtoΔavrPtoB. RNA-seq analysis was performed using the two Δnrd1 mutants and wild-type RG-PtoR plants 6 h after inoculation with 5 × 10⁶ cfu · mL⁻¹ DC3000ΔavrPtoΔavrPtoB (DC3000ΔΔ). Four plants for each genotype were used. Bars show means ± sd. Different letters indicate significant differences based on a one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s HSD test (P < 0.05). ns, no significant difference.
