Effect of silencing TaCDPK27 and TaATG7on the wheat seedling resistance response to powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, Bgt) infection. Wild-type (CK) and barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV)-treated wheat seedlings at the five-leaf stage were inoculated with powdery mildew causal agent conidia. Fungal structures were stained with Coomassie brilliant blue and visualized via microscopy. (A) Representative images of Bgt infection of the fourth leaves of BSMV-treated wheat seedlings at 3 days after inoculation (Bar = 200 μm). (B) Representative images of powdery mildew infection of the fourth leaves of BSMV- inoculated wheat seedlings at 7 days after inoculation
