The Verticillium dahliae SnodProt1-like protein VdCP1 contributes to virulence and triggers the plant immune system
By Zhang Y, Gao Y, Liang Y, Dong Y, Yang X, Yuan J and Qiu D (2017) Front. Plant Sci. 8:1880. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2017.01880
In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 6C as published. It caught the authors’ attention that the picture of disease symptom phenotype in the original Figure 6C was mistakenly introduced during the figure preparation. The error occurred because the duplicated photos taken during early-stage pathogen infection experiments were not immediately and correctly marked and were later mistaken for another experiment when preparing the figures. The corrected Figure 6 appears below.
Figure 6. Induction of disease resistance against P. syringae pv. tabaci, B. cinerea, and V. dahliae in VdCP1-treated plants. (A) Tobacco leaves were treated with 100 μM VdCP1 or His-tag and inoculated with pathogens at 3 days after treatment, photographs were taken, then the B. cinerea lesion area in leaves and the number of the P. syringae colonies spread on plates were analyzed. (B) The induced tobacco plants showed resistance to the bacterial pathogen P. syringae pv. tabaci. The degree of infection was measured based on the number of bacteria obtained from the infected plants, and the degree of infection in the control was considered 100%. The induced tobacco plants also showed resistance to the fungal pathogen B. cinerea. The lesion area was calculated to determine the resistance of tobacco to B. cinerea. (C) Cotton seedlings induced with 100 µM VdCP1 or His-tag (control) and infected with V. dahliae. The photographs show symptoms of cotton seedlings inoculated with V. dahliae. (D) Cotton seedlings treated with VdCP1 showed resistance to V. dahliae. The degree of infection is reflected by the disease index. Asterisks indicate a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05 by Student's t-test).
