From: Overexpression of OsPUB41, a Rice E3 ubiquitin ligase induced by cell wall degrading enzymes, enhances immune responses in Rice and Arabidopsis

Fig. 5

OsPUB41 mutant forms are incapable of inducing callose deposition and tolerance to Xoo infection in rice. Callose deposition was assayed upon transient overexpression of either OsPUB41 or OsPUB41C40A or OsPUB41V51R. The graph represents average number of callose deposits per field of view (0.075 mm2) from ten leaves with six to eight different fields viewed per leaf in each experiment (a). Error bars represent standard error. Student’s two-tailed t-test for independent means was performed to test for significance (p < 0.05, represented by*). Similar results were obtained in three independent experiments. C40A and V51R represent OsPUB41C40A and OsPUB41V51R respectively. b. The bar represents average bacterial blight lesion length. Error bar represents standard error. Data was analyzed using the Student’s t-test for independent means (*indicates significant difference with p value < 0.05). Similar results were obtained in three independent experiments. C40A and V51R labels represent OsPUB41C40A and OsPUB41V51R respectively. Xoo label represents lesion lengths for leaves with Xoo infection without any prior treatment of Agrobacterium
