The original HTML version of this Article contained errors in Table 1, where text was inadvertently inserted on three occasions.

For the Target gene ‘CP hairpin sense strand’ with Primer name ‘CP-RNAi-P2’, the Primer sequence (5′-3′) incorrectly read “GAcomment=” Underline the selected text “AGATCTYCACGAGCCCTATCAGGTGTCTTT Bgl II” and now reads “GAAGATCTYCACGAGCCCTATCAGGTGTCTTT Bgl II”.

For the Target gene ‘CP hairpin reverse strand’ with Primer name ‘CP-RNAi-P3’, the Primer sequence (5′-3′) incorrectly read “GCcomment=” Underline the selected text “comment=” Underline the selected text “GTCGACTCAACGCCGGAACTAGTGGAACTT Sal I” and now reads “GCGTCGACTCAACGCCGGAACTAGTGGAACTT Sal I”.

For the Target gene ‘CP hairpin reverse strand’ with Primer name ‘CP-RNAi-P4’, the Primer sequence (5′-3′) incorrectly read “CGcomment =” Underline the selected text “comment =” the selected text“comment =” Underline the selected text “GGATCCTCACGAGCCCTATCAGGTGTCTTT BamH I” and now reads “CGGGATCCTCACGAGCCCTATCAGGTGTCTTT BamH I”.

These errors have been corrected in the HTML version of the Article; the PDF version was correct from the time of publication.
