(a) Venn diagram showing the number of genes with more than 2-fold changes after treatment with EBR, CHT or EBR+CHT in comparison with the untreated controls. ↑, up-regulated; ↓, down-regulated. (b) Comparison of expression of sets of detoxification genes in EBR, CHT and EBR+CHT treated and control plants. (c) Leaf H2O2 content, glutathione homeostasis and GST activity as influenced by EBR, CHT and EBR+CHT treatments. EBR at 0.1 μM was applied 6 h prior to pesticide application and leaves were taken at 5 d after application of CHT at 11.2 mM. Data are means of four biological replicates (±SD). Means denoted by the same letter did not significantly differ at P < 0.05 according to Tukey's test.
