Expression of defence-related genes and ET biosynthesis genes. (A) The expression of defence-related genes and ET biosynthesis genes was examined following TMV infection. Next, qPCR was used to examine the expression of defence-related genes, including PR1, PR2, PR4, PR5 and NPR1, and ET biosynthesis genes, including ACO and ACS genes, in plants 10 days post-infection with TMV. (B) The expression of defence-related genes and ET biosynthesis genes 7 days post infection with a fungus. The actin gene was used to normalise the amount of template in each reaction. The data are presented as the mean ± standard error of three independent experiments. The values indicated by the different letters are significantly different at P < 0.05, as determined using Duncan’s multiple range test.
