From: The beneficial endophytic microbes enhanced tobacco defense system to resist bacterial wilt disease
Effects of beneficial endophytic Burkholderia ASV_550 and R. solanacearum (Rs) inoculations on the plant growth and immune system. a Phenotypes of tobacco after inoculating ASV_550 and R. solanacearum in glasshouse experiments. CK, no inoculation; ASV_550, inoculation with ASV_550 only, Rs, inoculation with R. solanacearum only; ASV_550 + Rs, inoculation with ASV_550 and R. solanacearum. b Disease incidence was scored at 15 days after R. solanacearum inoculation. c Effects of ASV_550 and R. solanacearum inoculations on tobacco growth indicators including shoot weight, root weight and root length at 15 days after R. solanacearum inoculation. d Effects of ASV_550 and R. solanacearum inoculations on the transcription of genes involved in JA and SA signaling pathways of tobacco roots at 15 days after R. solanacearum inoculation. Transcript levels in CK are arbitrarily set to one, and those in the other treatments are relative expression levels. Asterisks indicate significant differences between treatments (*, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001)
