Fig. 2From: Hpa1 is a type III translocator in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzaeVirulence of Xoo TAL effector-relevant strains on IRBB10. (a) Virulence of PXO99 WT and TAL effector-relevant mutants on IRBB10. Fourteen-day-old IRBB10 seedlings were inoculated by leaf infiltration with every bacterial suspension of the indicated Xoo strains. Inoculated leaves were photographed at 5 days post-inoculation (dpi). (b) Bacterial populations propagated in leaf tissues were determined at 5 dpi. Quantitative data shown are means ± statistical estimates of standard error of mean (SEM); different letters on bar graphs indicated significant difference in Duncan’s multiple range tests; P < 0.05; number of repetition (n) = 9 from 3 independent experiments each involving 3 repetitionsBack to article page
