Figure 6

Whole plant bioassay of T2 transgenic and wild type (WT) plants with sheath blight fungus, R. solani. (a) Percent Disease Index (PDI) value in T2 transgenic plants with respect to wild type control at 7, 14 and 21 dpi (days post inoculation). The values represent as the mean ± SE (n = 15). (b) Representative images showing typical sheath blight symptoms development on rice tillers of T2 transgenic (CN5-2-1, C8-9-1, and N4-3-2) and non transformed wild type control. Pictures were taken at 7, 14 and 21 dpi. Red arrows indicate sheath blight symptoms.
