Functional characterization of GhERF105 by VIGS. a The photo-bleaching phenotypes of cotton seedlings in CCRI12 inoculated with pTRV::GhPDS and empty vectors. TRV::GhPDS and TRV::00 are the positive control and negative control, respectively. b Relative transcript levels of GhERF105 of leaf inoculated with pTRV::GhERF105 or empty vector control. c The gossypol content in empty vector (TRV::00) and in the GhERF105-silenced leaves of CCRI12.and CCRI12XW, Actin was used as an internal control. d d1-d2 Phenotypes of Gossypium hirsutum CCRI12 inoculated with pTRV::00 vector. d3-d6 Phenotypes of Gossypium hirsutum CCRI12 inoculated with pTRV:: GhERF105 vector. d7-d8 Phenotypes of Gossypium hirsutum CCRI12XW. d1-d8 are enlarged versions of the positions indicated by the yellow box in Fig. 3. d1 correspond to d2, d3 correspond to d4, d5 correspond to d6 and d7 correspond to d8. the red arrow indicates the location of the glands on the leaf. Each bar value represents mean ± SD of three independent experiments
