From: The lysin motif-containing proteins, Lyp1, Lyk7 and LysMe3, play important roles in chitin perception and defense against Verticillium dahliae in cotton

Fig. 9

Lyp1, Lyk7, and LysMe3 activated downstream defense genes. a The expression of defense-related genes (PR1, PR4, PR5, and PR10) was analyzed in Hai7124 and Junmian 1 after inoculation with V. dahliae strain V991. The 0 h treatments of the Hai7124 and Junmian 1 acted as controls. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences, as determined by Student’s t-tests (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). b The transcript levels of the four PR genes in cotton treated with SA, JA, and H2O2 were detected, with H2O treatment acting as a control. c The expression levels of the defense genes were compared in the TRV: 00 control and VIGS cotton plants. Error bars represent the standard deviation of three independent experiments with three technical replicates for each experiment. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences, as determined by Student’s t-tests (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01)
