From: RXLR effector genes mediate regional adaptation of Phytophthora infestans
Regional specific RXLR effector genes enriched with homologous 25–26 nt sRNA. a Number of effector genes enriched with sRNAs. Blue/light blue and red/light red represent the number of silent/expressed effector genes from TSGS and WNGZ isolates, respectively. b Number and distribution of regional specific effector genes. The figure above the bar graph represents the number of genes, and the colored and white grids below represent the present or absent accumulation of sRNAs at these genes in the isolate. c Heatmap visualization of sRNA accumulation levels of regional specific effector genes. d–i Differential accumulation of 25–26 nt sRNAs homologous to effector genes Pi12046, Pi09647, Pi15225, Pi06083, Pi22935, and PexRD2 in TSGS and WNGZ isolates. Statistical significance was assessed by Student’s t-test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
