Phenotypes of the OsWRKY67 overexpressing (OX-WRKY67) plants infected with blast fungus. The asterisks represent significant differences relative to Nipponbare plants (t-test, **P < 0.01). a Relative transcription levels of OsWRKY67 in wild-type Nipponbare (NPB) and OX-WRKY67 plants. The values are mean ± SD of three biological replicates. b The OX-WRKY67 plants exhibited enhanced leaf blast resistance after inoculation with GD08-T13 using the punch method. c Relative lesion size in Nipponbare and OX-WRKY67 plants after infection by leaf blast. The values are mean ± SD of twelve biological replicates. d Numbers of spores produced on the Nipponbare and OX-WRKY67 plants after punch inoculation. The values are means ± SDs of six biological replicates. e The OX-WRKY67 plants exhibited enhanced panicle blast resistance after inoculation with GD08-T13. f The infected main axis length in Nipponbare and OX-WRKY67 plants after infection by panicle blast. The values are means ± SDs of twenty biological replicates
