Fig. 5From: Identification and characterization of a spotted-leaf mutant spl40 with enhanced bacterial blight resistance in riceEvaluation of disease resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae and expression of defense genes involved in JA and SA signaling pathway. a Lesion lengths after Xoo inoculation at 20 DPI. b Expression analysis of JA signaling pathway genes. c Expression analysis of SA signaling pathway genes. Values are means ± SD (A n = 9; B and C n = 3); ** indicates significance at P ≤ 0.01 and * indicates significance at P ≤ 0.05 by Student’s t testBack to article page
