Scatter dot plot with bar representing the transcript accumulation of R. irregularis elongation factor 1α (RiEF1α) and M. paleacea stunted arbuscule (MpaSTR) in M. paleacea thalli after 8-week inoculation with R. irregularis. Transcript level was determined by RT-qPCR and the housekeeping gene adenine phosphoribosyl transferase (APT) was used for normalization. Bars and error bars indicate the mean and the standard deviation, respectively. Thalli from each biological replicate in (B) were used. One-way ANOVA; post hoc Dunnett with comparison to the WT;∗p< 0.05;n= 3.
