Figure 1From: Analysis of banana transcriptome and global gene expression profiles in banana roots in response to infection by race 1 and tropical race 4 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubenseExamination of the early infection process using GFP-expressing Foc1 and Foc TR4. At 27Â hrs post-inoculation, spores and hyphae of the GFP-expressing Foc 1 (A and C) and Foc TR4 (B and D) were attached to the roots. At 51Â hrs post-inoculation, hyphae were observed in the vascular tissues 3-5Â mm from the cut sites of the banana roots infected with Foc1 (E and G) and Foc TR4 (F and H).Back to article page
