Time-course expression analyses and validation of nine selected DEGs using quantitative real time RT-PCR. a Quantitative RT-PCR analyses of nine selected DEGs confirmed that these genes were up-regulated in IR28 and generally suppressed in LYP9 at both 24 and 48 hpi. Log2 fold change of transcript levels in the inoculated samples with respect to the transcript levels in mock-inoculated rice panicles was shown. Error bars represent standard errors for three replicates of qRT-PCR assays. b The linear correlation between RNA-Seq transcriptome profiles and qRT-PCR data. The log2 ratio values from transcriptome data were plotted against those of the qRT-PCR results. A correlation coefficient of 0.61 indicates that there is a good linear correlation between RNA-Seq and qRT-PCR data
