Defense-related metabolite levels and transcript abundances for associated biosynthetic pathways in control and GB-infested (infested) plants. a Differential metabolite levels in four biological replicates (Rep1-4) from control and infested switchgrass plants 10-DAI analyzed by GCMS. b Specific metabolite levels of pipecolic acid, trehalose and chlorogenic acid in control and GB-infested plants at 10-DAI, validated using authentic standards. c Metabolic pathway for biosynthesis of pipecolic acid (ΔpipC), adapted from Zeier, 2013, left panel, and transcript abundances (right panel). d Transcript abundances of genes associated with trehalose metabolism (left panel) and chlorogenic acid (right panel). Other details as described for Fig. 2
