Disease resistance assays in four ScDIR transgenic N. benthamiana lines. a Disease symptoms caused by the indicated fungal strains in transgenic N. benthamiana lines that overexpress ScDIR genes. Photographs were taken at three days post-inoculation (dpi) and lesion areas were measured. b Lesion area in ScDIR transgenic lines after S. rolfsii infection. c Lesion area in ScDIR transgenic lines after R. solani infection. d Lesion area in ScDIR transgenic lines after B. cinerea infection. Error bars denote the standard deviation calculated from six independent experiments. The asterisk indicates a statistically significant difference from WT (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001; t-test)
