From: Loss function of SL (sekiguchi lesion) in the rice cultivar Minghui 86 leads to enhanced resistance to (hemi)biotrophic pathogens

Fig. 4

sl-MH-1 mutant showed enhanced resistance to Xoo. a MH86 and sl-MH-1 plants were inoculated with Xoo at the tilling stage. The infected leaves from three independent MH86 or sl-MH-1 plants were imaged at 14 dpi. b Blight lesion length on sl-MH-1 and MH86 leaves were measured. Bars represent mean values ± SD (n = 6, from three independent plants). c Blight bacterial populations were counted 14 dpi with bars representing mean values ± SD from three independent MH86 or sl-MH-1 plants. Cfu means colony-forming units. Statistically significant difference in b and c was indicated by ** (p < 0.01, Student’s t-test)
