Transgenic tomato strategies targeting whitefly eggs from apoplastic or ovary-directed proteins

Abstract Background Transgenic plants expressing proteins that target the eggs of the ubiquitous plant pest Bemisia tabaci (whitefly) could be an effective insecticide strategy. Two approaches for protein delivery are assessed using the mCherry reporter gene in transgenic tomato plants, while accomm...
