Fig. 8From: Glutathione peroxidase LtGPX3 contributes to oxidative stress tolerance, virulence, and plant defense suppression in the peach gummosis fungus Lasiodiplodia theobromaeImpact of LtGPX3 on transcript levels of plant defense-responsive genes in infected peach shoots. RNA samples were collected from peach shoots inoculated with WT or ΔLtgpx3 mutants at 5 dpi. Relative transcript levels of tested genes are compared with the control (WT) using reference gene PpTEF2 for normalization. Data are means ± SD of three biological replicates. In panels, letters on top of bars indicate statistically significant differences at P < 0.05Back to article page
