From: Colonisation of Oncidium orchid roots by the endophyte Piriformospora indica restricts Erwinia chrysanthemi infection, stimulates accumulation of NBS-LRR resistance gene transcripts and represses their targeting micro-RNAs in leaves

Expression of R genes after Ec infection of leaves of Pi-colonized or -uncolonized Oncidium. Expression levels of R genes 24 h after Ec infection of Pi-colonized (2 weeks) or –uncolonized Oncidium plants. 24 h after infection, the leaves were harvested for qRT-PCR analyses. CK: control plant without Pi colonization and Ec infection. P: Pi-colonized plants; (P)EL: local infected leaf of Pi-uncolonized (EL) or -colonized (PEL) plants. (P)ED: distal leaves of Pi-uncolonized (ED) or –colonized (PED) plants. SA: leaves treated with 1.0 mM salicylic acid for 24 h. MeJA: leaves treated with 0.1 mM methyl jasmonic acid for 24 h. Data represent the means ± SE of 3 replicates and were normalized to the Oncidium ACTIN mRNA level, values with the same letter were not significantly different (p < 0.05)
