Transient expression of VdMYB1 in tobacco leaves enhances disease resistance. a Transiently transformed tobacco leaves show enhanced resistant against R. solanacearum. Leaves were infiltrated with R. solanacearum (1 × 10⁷ cfu/ml), and disease symptoms were checked at 6 dpi. b Estimation of bacterial population in leaves transformed with Agrobacterium containing overexpression vector or no vector (mock treatment) c Chlorophyll content was measured in leaves transformed with Agrobacterium containing overexpression vector or no vector (mock treatment) Error bars represent SD. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01; Student’s t-test)
