ZmPGH1 suppresses the effects of Rp1-D21 in maize. (a). W22 Maize plants heterozygous for Rp1-D21 and homozygous (red bar) or heterozygous (blue bar) for mu1029380 are significantly taller than W22 Maize plants heterozygous for Rp1-D21 that lack mu1029380 (green bar). Data are derived from a replicated field trial in which 13 plants homozygous for mu1029380, 13 plants heterozygous for mu1029380 and 8 plants lacking mu1029380 were measured. **** indicates significant difference from the mu1029380 absent category (p < 0.001). (b) Maize plants heterozygous for Rp1-D21 and homozygous (red bar) or heterozygous (blue bar) for mu1029380 express ZmPGH1 at higher levels than maize plants heterozygous for Rp1-D21that lack mu1029380 (green bar). Data are derived from a replicated field trial in which 12 plants homozygous for mu1029380, 12 plants heterozygous for mu1029380 and 8 plants lacking mu1029380 were measured
