Effects of dietary ingestion of ds Sfspo on the relative Sfspo (A) and SfEcR (B) transcript levels, survival (C) and development (D) of L. striatellus nymphs. The nymphs were continuously ingested dsRNA from the second- through the fourth-instar stage. The relative transcript level for each sample was measured daily from 3 independent pools of 5–10 nymphs. The survival was calculated daily from 10 biological replicates, with each replicate of 10 individuals. The percentage of the fourth-instar was estimated from those in 10 biological replicates that survived through all experimental period. The values represent averages with vertical bars indicating SE, which topped with the same letters are not statistically significantly different at P = 0.05.
