Table 4 RT-qPCR-based relative expression (log2 fold change, LFC) of transcripts and CBSV concentration in RNAi-silenced/control Kaleso plants at different time points of agro-inoculation relative to 0 daai

From: PAL1 gene of the phenylpropanoid pathway increases resistance to the Cassava brown streak virus in cassava

Sample type

LFC of PAL1 in RNAi-silenced plants at 20–48 days post agro-infiltration:

LFC of CBSV abundance at 14–28 days after inoculation of treated plants:
