From: Pathogenic function of the natural variation of CP in WYMV and CWMV
Natural variation of coat protein (CP) from different WYMV isolates enhanced WYMV infection in several wheat resistance cultivars. a Relative expression of WYMV RNA in systemic leaves of wheat resistance cultivars inoculated with JN-old or JN-2021 and YZ-2016 or YZ-2021. LM 19, LM23, and LM14 are resistance cultivars in Junan. S553, XZ14, and SM3 are the resistance cultivars in Yangzhou at 28 days post-infiltration (dpi). JN-old and YZ-2016 represent for WYMV infectious clones containing CP from a previous WYMV isolate in Junnan and Yangzhou, China (Junan-old and Yangzhou-2016). JN-2021 and YZ-2021 represent for WYMV infectious clones containing CP from WYMV isolates Junan-2021 and Yang-2021 which obtained in this study. The values were normalized to those for the reference gene (TaCDC) and are presented as fold changes in expression relative to that in wheat leaves inoculated with JN-old or JN-2021 and YZ-2016 or YZ-2021. Asterisks indicate significant differences in expression between wheat leaves inoculated with JN-old and JN-2021 or YZ-2016 and YZ-2021 when analyzed using a Student’s t-test (P < 0.05). b The phenotype of wheat plants inoculated with the infectious clones containing CP of WYMV isolate from Junnan and Yangzhou, China
