Table 2. Weights of beet armyworm larvae feeding on N. benthamiana T2 homozygous plants transformed with the BvSTI gene.
| Transformants | 0 days | 5 days | 7 days |
| 11-4 | 38±2.0b (8) | 87±13a (7) | 116±27b (6) |
| 11-5 | 38±2.0b (8) | 88±15a (7) | 108±18b (6) |
| 11-6 | 36±2.0b (8) | 109±18b (8) | 183±30b (7) |
| 11-13 | 38±2.0b (8) | 109±9.2b (8) | 160±25b (5) |
| 12-2 | 36±1.0b (8) | 108±13b (8) | 125±23b (7) |
| Control | 37±1.0b (8) | 139±20b (8) | 168±27b (7) |
Values represent mean larval weight ± SE (mg).
Means followed by the same superscript within columns are not significantly different (P<0.05) by one-way ANOVA test. Number in parenthesis indicates the number of living larvae out of 8 that were weighed.
