Suppressive effects of transgenic plants on the growth of Spodoptera exigua.
(A) S. exigua individuals fed with 2-week-old transgenic plants (growing on nutrient soil) for 6 days. (B) Weight of S. exigua individuals fed with transgenic plants for 6 days. The red vertical line is shown for scale and represents 1 cm. Bars represent standard deviation (n≥30). Each experiment was repeated more than thrice. Data are presented as the means ± SD of three independent experiments. Asterisks indicate significant differences between transgenic and WT Arabidopsis lines (Student’s t-test: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01).
