Knocking out OsVQ32 reduced rice resistance to Xoo. The asterisks “**” or “*” indicate a significant difference between transgenic plants and wild type (WT; Zhonghua 11) at P < 0.01 or P < 0.05, respectively. a Analysis of the response of OsVQ14-KO and OsVQ32-KO plants to Xoo inoculation. Bars represent mean (3 to 5 plants, with each plant having 3 leaves for lesion area) ± standard deviation (SD). b Analysis of the Xoo growth in leaves of OsVQ32-KO plants. Bars represent mean (3 leaves from 3 positive plants) ± SD. The significant difference was detected between transgenic plants and WT with the same treatment. cfu, colony-forming unit. c Analysis of the response of OsVQ14-KO/OsVQ32-KO double mutants to Xoo inoculation. Bars represent mean (3 leaves from one plant for lesion area) ± standard deviation (SD). d Analysis of the Xoo growth in leaves of OsVQ14-KO/OsVQ32-KO double mutants. Bars represent mean (3 leaves from 3 positive plants) ± SD. The significant difference was detected between transgenic plants and WT with the same treatment. cfu, colony-forming unit
