Expression of GUS and BAR proteins from the SCMV expression vector in sweet corn leaves. (a) The leaf on left is from a non‐infected (NI) plant; the middle leaf is from a SCMV empty vector (EV)‐infected plant, and the leaf on the right from a plant infected with SCMV‐CS2‐GUS (biolistically inoculated). Blue indicates the presence of GUS protein in leaves stained with X‐Gluc and cleared with ethanol. (b) SCMV‐CS2‐BAR protects plants from effects of Finale^® (Agrevo) herbicide, which contains glufosinate–ammonium as the active ingredient. The herbicide killed non‐infected plants (NI) and plants infected by SCMV empty vector (EV) (Rub‐inoculation R1)
