Transcriptional Profiling of Rice Early Response to Magnaporthe oryzae Identified OsWRKYs as Important Regulators in Rice Blast Resistance
Figure 8
Overexpression of OsWRKY47 enhanced rice resistance to Magnaporthe oryzae strain 96-4-1a.
A: The disease symptoms on TP309, pUbi:OsWRKY47#16 and #7 transgenic plants at 7 days post-inoculation. The inoculation experiments were repeated three time (n = 15 seedlings) with similar results. B, C: The expression levels of OsWRKY47 and PR10 in TP309 and pUbi:OsWRKY47 transgenic plants determined by quantitative RT-PCR. The expression levels were standardized to OsUBQ and the value in TP309 was set at 1.0. Error bars in (B) and (C) represent the SD from three biological replicates, each containing at least 10 seedlings. The expression levels that differ significantly (P<0.05) from those in TP309 were marked with asterisks.
