Performance of M. sexta on EV- and MYC2-VIGS plants. Neonates (n=20) of the specialist herbivore, M. sexta, were fed on EV and MYC2-VIGS N. attenuata plants for 13 d and their masses (mean ± SE) were determined on the 5th, 9th and 13th day to compare their relative growth performance. No significant differences were observed in mass gained among caterpillars fed on EV or MYC2-VIGS plants.
