Relative expression levels of CmHRE2-like and proliferation of aphids on WT and transgenic lines at 14 days after inoculation, bar = 2 cm. (a) Relative expression levels of CmHRE2-like in the WT and transgenic plants; (b) The average number of aphids present on WT and transgenic lines measured at 14 days after aphid infection. Bars indicate the standard errors; the alphabets represent the level of significant difference (p < 0.05); (c). Image of differential proliferation of aphids between WT and transgenic lines
