Relative abundance of Cucumis melo clade V MLO gene transcripts in response to PM challenge compared to mock-treated plants. Data refer to three different time points, at 5, 9 and 24 h post inoculation (HPI) with the PM fungus Podosphaera xanthii. Standard error bars refer to three biological replicates. Significant differences among the means were inferred using the Student’s t test for each time point. Asterisks indicate p < 0.05
