Top 20 functional categories that are significantly regulated in B. napus in response to infection by L. maculans ‘brassicae’ compared to infection by L. biglobosa ‘canadensis.’

B. napus genes expressed during infection at 7 dpi were assigned to functional categories and overall pathway regulation was examined. The top 20 categories determined by MapMan analysis are listed. Abbreviations: PS (photosynthesis), LHC (light harvesting complex), CHO (carbohydrate), PR (pathogen response), PME (pectin methyl esterase), ATP (adenosine triphosphate). AAA type (ATPases Associated with diverse cellular Activities). P values indicate the likelihood of the observed pathway regulation being due to chance.
