Biosynthesized AgNPs induce the expression of salicylic acid (SA) signaling pathway-related genes NPR1 and PR2 in Nicotiana benthamiana. a Relative expression level of NPR1 after biosynthesized AgNPs treatment. b Relative expression level of PR2 after biosynthesized AgNPs treatment. N. benthamiana plants were sprayed with 1.2 Î¼g/mL biosynthesized AgNPs for 3 times (once per day). Leaf samples were collected at next day after treatment. Mock, negative control (treated with sterilized distilled water). The data are mean ± standard error (n = 3). Data analysis was performed using Student’s t test (∗0.01 < P < 0.05, ∗∗∗P < 0.001)
