Also, we observed an increased expression of the death-associated protein kinase 3 gene (dapk3) after 12 hpi in infection-I and -III compared to infection-II and -IV (Fig. 5A), while in the 24-hpi scenario we noticed a higher DAPK3 expression in infection-III and -IV than in infection-I and -II (Fig. 5A). This evidence concerns the gene DAPK3 and infection.
