Inhibition of fungal pathogen infections in GhMPK16 -overexpressing Arabidopsis lines. (A) Disease symptoms of leaves from wild-type (WT) and transgenic plants (#2 and #5) 5 d after inoculation with C. nicotianae (10⁶ conidia/ml). (B) The diameter (mm) of the lesions was measured 5 d after inoculation with C. nicotianae. Data are the mean ± SE (n = 6) from three independent experiments. Different letters indicate significant differences with P < 0.05 according to Duncan's multiple range test. (C) Disease symptoms of the leaves from wild-type (WT) and transgenic plants (#2 and #5) 5 d after inoculation with A. alternate (10⁶ conidia/ml). (D) The diameter (mm) of the lesions was measured 5 d after inoculation with A. alternate. Data are the mean ± SE (n = 6) from three independent experiments. Different letters indicate significant differences with a P < 0.05 according to Duncan's multiple range test.
