Expression level of Cry2Aa in transgenic chickpea plants based on quantitative ELISA

Transgenic line	Level of Cry2Aa protein (ng/mg FW)	Mortality (%)	Phenotype
AraSSU-Cry2Aa	97	100	Reduced yield, stunted growth
CaMV-Cry2Aa	5	**	Normal

**Mortality assay of transgenic plant was not performed due to low levels of expressed Cry2Aa protein
