Extended Data Fig. 6: Effect of amino acids on accumulation of H2O2 and pathogenicity of U. virens.
From: Phyllosphere microbiome induces host metabolic defence against rice false-smut disease
BCAAs including leucine (Leu), valine (Val) and isoleucine (Ile), and non-BCAAs including Alanine (Ala), Phenylalanine (Phe), Tyrosine (Tyr), Methionine (Met), Aspartic acid (Asp) and Tryptophan (Trp) were used to test their effects on H2O2 accumulation in U. virens (a). In addition, formation of false smut balls in the panicles infected with U. virens was observed for comparison of disease suppressive effects of these amino acids (b). Values are means ± SD (shown as error bars; n = 5 batches of media or 5 panicles). Different letters with error bars indicate a significant difference according to one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey’s HSD test (P < 0.05).
