NPTII expression levels in direct transformants and conversions. Four site-specific integration (SSI) landing sites generated by excision-exchange in HC69 inbred maize were introgressed into inbred 2. Completed conversions (>95% recurrent parent) were selfed and seeds homozygous for the transgenic event were produced in the same field and bulked. Bulked seeds were planted in the greenhouse according to the standard complete randomized block design for transgene expression analysis. Young leaves were sampled at about 3 weeks after planting and leaf extracts were analyzed for NPTII concentration. The chart contains data from 114 plants; each bar is the mean of 12-16 plants.
