Figure 4: The ∆Movrp1 mutants were nonpathogenic on detached rice leaves.

From: MoVrp1, a putative verprolin protein, is required for asexual development and infection in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae

Figure 4

(A and C) unwound and wounded rice (CO-39) leaves were inoculated with mycelial plugs of the wildtype Guy11, ∆Movrp1#54, ∆Movrp1#105 and the complemented strain, and photographed at 7 day post-inoculation, respectively. (B) Rice roots were inoculated with the wildtype Guy11, ∆Movrp1#54, ∆Movrp1#105 and the complemented strain, respectively. (D) Appressorium-like structures were formated on rice leaves. Mycelial mats were inoculated on rice leaves and photographed at 48 h post-inoculation. The experiments were repeated three times with the similar results.
