Effects of VOCs produced by B. subtilis DZSY21 on the disease indexes of maize leaves and the expression levels of C. lunata virulence-related genes. a Disease indexes of maize leaves infected with 2-MBA, 2-HA, IA, or control (DMSO)-treated C. lunata conidia. b Quantitative real-time PCR analysis of the expression levels of five virulence-related genes (clk1, clm1, clt, scd, and brn1) in response to 2-MBA, 2-HA, IA, or control treatment. Values were normalized to the levels of GAPDH, an internal reference gene. The y-axis values represent the fold changes of virulence-related gene expression levels. *A significant difference compared with the control (P < 0.05). Error bars represent the standard deviation. Each treatment had three replications, and the experiment was repeated three times
