M. sexta larval performance on LPP- and UnkA-silenced plants. N. attenuata plants were silenced in the expression of LPP and UnkA by VIGS. Plants transformed with the empty vector (EV) were used as control. A, Mean (± SE) of M. sexta larval mass after 4, 7, 11 and 15 days of feeding on EV and LPP-silenced plants (n = 32 for each genotype). Statistical analysis was performed by repeated-measurement ANOVA (F1,54 = 12.79, P < 0.01). B, Mean (± SE) of M. sexta larval mass after 4, 7, 11 and 15 days of feeding on EV and UnkA-silenced plants (n = 32 for each genotype). Statistical analysis was performed by repeated-measurement ANOVA (F1,48 = 6.62, P < 0.05). In both cases asterisks represent significant differences between EV and the corresponding silenced line. Both experiments were conducted two times independently with identical results.
