Identify the incorrect statement regarding the use of RNAi for creating transgenic tobacco plants resistant to Meloidogyne incognita:
| 1. | Agrobacterium tumefaciens was used to transform the plant cells |
| 2. | Double-stranded RNA was introduced into the plant cells |
| 3. | Double-stranded RNA was formed in the plant cells that initiated RNAi |
| 4. | A specific mRNA of the nematode was silenced with the help of dsRNA |

RNA interference involves silencing a specific mRNA by:
| 1. | interfering with its post transcriptional modification |
| 2. | not allowing the transport of mRNA from nucleus to cytoplasm |
| 3. | a dsRNA that binds to it and prevents its translation |
| 4. | post translational degradation of the protein |
