From: The powdery mildew-resistant Arabidopsis mlo2 mlo6 mlo12 triple mutant displays altered infection phenotypes with diverse types of phytopathogens

Figure 3

The mlo2 mlo6 mlo12 triple mutants show an unaltered A. laibachii infection phenotype. Six-week-old plants were spray-inoculated with A. laibachii (isolate Nc14) and infection phenotypes were assessed at 10 dpi. (A) Representative examples of inoculated rosette leaves of accessions Col-0, Ksk-1 and the two mlo2 mlo6 mlo12 triple mutant lines. Insets show a magnification of an inoculated leaf area. (B) Quantitative evaluation of the infection rate. Data show the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of the proportion of rosette leaves with disease symptoms (macroscopically visible white rust pustule formation) based on 5-6 plants per genotype and 12-30 evaluated leaves per plant. ** Indicates a statistically significant difference from Col-0 (P < 0.01) according to a Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney rank sum test.
