Table 3 GLM results of performance assay. Effects of plant type (factor with three levels: Coker 312; RNAi 1 and RNAi 2) and treatment (factor with three levels: untreated, S. littoralis infested and jasmonic acid treated) and their interaction on weight and leaf area consumed by S. littoralis larvae in the performance assay with true leaves after four and seven days (n = 20)
