SEC14 Phospholipid Transfer Protein Is Involved in Lipid Signaling-Mediated Plant Immune Responses in Nicotiana benthamiana

Virus-induced gene silencing of NbSEC14 and its effect on the expression of defense-related genes.
Total RNA was isolated from control (PVX; gray box) and NbSEC14-silenced leaves (PVX:sec14P1; black box) infiltrated with avirulent Rs8107. Expression values of NbSEC14 are expressed as [Qty] after normalization with actin. Relative expression of PR-4, PR-1a, and hin1 transcripts were normalized with actin and calculated as relative to the non-treated control. Values represent the means and SD from triplicate experiments. Asterisks denote values significantly different from empty PVX controls (*; P<0.05).
