From: Tomato Sl3-MMP, a member of the Matrix metalloproteinase family, is required for disease resistance against Botrytis cinerea and Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000

Expression patterns of Sl-MMPs in response to defense signaling hormones. Tomato plants were treated by foliar spraying of 1 mM SA (a), 100 μM MeJA (b), 100 μM ACC (c) or equal volume of solution as a control and leaf samples were collected at indicated time points. Gene expression was analyzed by qRT-PCR and relative expression levels were calculated by comparing with the corresponding values at 0 h (as a control) after treatment. Relative expression was shown as folds of the actin transcript values. Data presented are the means ± SD from three independent experiments and different letters above the columns indicate significant differences at p < 0.05 level
