Figure 6From: Plant disease resistance is augmented in uzu barley lines modified in the brassinosteroid receptor BRI1Analysis of BES1 and BRI1 gene transcript levels in barley cultivar Akashinriki (Aka) and its uzu derivative (Aka-uzu), as determined by quantitative RT-PCR analysis. Germinating seedlings were transferred to Hoaglands solution and the leaf samples are harvested after 48 and 72 hours for RNA extraction. (A) Brassinazole-resistant-2 (BES1) (Contig7854_at). (B) Brassinosteroid insensitive-1 (BRI1) (Gene id: AB109215.1). Bars indicate SEM (LSD0.05 A = 0.0003, B = 0.0048).Back to article page
