Different phenotypes of Nipponbare (susceptible) and Zhendao 88 (resistant) inoculated with RSV. a Symptoms of the two varieties at 28 dpi. The lower panel of (a) shows the symptomatic leaves of the representative plants. Bars = 5 cm. b Relative expression of RSV CP in the two varieties at 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 dpi. c Disease incidences of the two varieties at 30 dpi. Thirty plants were used for each treatment in the experiment of disease incidence. All the experiments were repeated three times, and similar results were obtained. The data represent the means ± SD of triplicate measurements. Different letters represent significantly difference at P < 0.05 according to Duncan’s multiple tests
