Fig. 4: Transcriptome analysis of Vec and MdSYP121-RNAi calli lines.

a The number of DEGs (twofold change cut-off) between Vec and MdSYP121-RNAi calli lines under mock conditions or in response to B. dothidea infection. b Venn diagram showing the numbers of genes whose expression was independent or dependent of B. dothidea infection. Left: the expression of genes regulated with or without B. dothidea inoculation. Right: the expression of genes upregulated with or without B. dothidea inoculation. Mock indicates the RNAi mock compared with the Vec mock; inoculation indicates RNAi with B. dothidea inoculation compared with Vec with B. dothidea inoculation. c GO analysis of DEGs independent or dependent of B. dothidea infection. Histograms of the values were generated to highlight the GO enrichment of representative GO classes. P-values for each enriched class are indicated (p–v)
