Figure 6: T1 plants expressing dvssj1 dsRNA show root protection from WCR feeding damage.

From: Discovery of midgut genes for the RNA interference control of corn rootworm

Figure 6

(a) Map of the dvssj1 expression cassette. (b) Five dvssj1 transgenic lines and one transgenic negative isoline (NULL) were selected for T1 greenhouse assay. Fifteen or fourteen plants per dvssj1 dsRNA line and NULL plants were assayed for WCR feeding damage34. The node injury score (mean ± SD) was significantly different (p-value < 0.0001) between the NULL and all transgenic lines.
