TABLE 1.

Efficiencies of hpRNA-expressing constructs as silencing triggers^a

Plasmid	No. of transformants			Silencing frequency (%)
	Albino	Wild type	Total
pMAT1253	143	25	168	85.1
pMAT1254	85	71	156	54.5
pMAT1255	69	146	215	32.1
pLEU4	0	1,758	1,758	0

^aPlasmid pLEU4 was used as a control. The colors of the transformants were observed after 48 h under illumination with blue light.
