PbePep4 and PdrPep6 interfamilially induced the resistance against necrotrophic pathogens in Cucurbitaceae and Brassicaceae species. (A–C). Disease symptoms (A) and lesion area (B) of A. thaliana leaves pretreated with PbePep4 and PdrPep6 at 24 hours post-inoculation with S. sclerotiorum. A. thaliana leaves were pre-sprayed with PbePep4 and PdrPep6 at 24 hours before inoculation. Measurement of bacterial content in the inoculated leaves (C). (D–F). Disease symptoms (D) and lesion area (E) of B. napus leaves pretreated with PbePep4 and PdrPep6 at 24 hours post-inoculation with S. sclerotiorum. B. napus leaves were pre-sprayed with PbePep4 and PdrPep6 at 24 hours before inoculation. Measurement of bacterial content in the inoculated leaves (F). (G, H) Disease symptoms (G) and lesion area (H) of C. lanatus leaves pretreated with PbePep4 and PdrPep6 at 72 hours post-inoculation with B. cinerea spores. Leaves were pre-sprayed with PbePep4 and PdrPep6 at 24 hours before inoculation. One-way ANOVA method was used to test the significance of differences among experimental groups. At least three biological replicates were performed with similar results. For B, C, E, F, and H, the data were shown as the mean ± SE. Star numbers represented levels of difference significance (**P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001).
