In order to analyze the expression patterns of ARF genes in zucchini after infection by pathogenic bacteria (Fig. 10, Table S4, Table S6), the zucchini growing for about 15 days was inoculated with F. oxysporum isolated in our laboratory, and the leaves were taken at different time points (0,12,24 and 48 h) for qRT-PCR analysis. Here, CDKN2A is linked to infection.
