Comparison of effector expression in the leaf and root tissues of citron (a and b), Duncan (c and d) and Cleopatra (e and f). Leaf and root samples were collected from three plants of each citrus genotype that were inoculated 14–17 months prior via ACP infestation. In the expression analysis, the Ct values of each effector generated by RT-qPCR were normalized with citrus endogenous control UPL7 and transformed into relative quantification (RQ) values (2-delatCt). The effectors with expression detected were subject to pair-wise comparison of standard least-square means (LS means) with Student’s t-test (p < 0.05). Expression levels indicated with the same letter are not significantly different. Bars are means ± standard error (n = 3)
