Figure 5

(a) Photograph of a chalcid wasp that emerged from A. bisulcatus seed. (b) Tricolor-coded µXRF map of the chalcid wasp showing Se (in red), Zn (in green) and Ca (in blue). (c) Photograph of a seed beetle that emerged from seed of A. bisulcatus. (d) Tricolor-coded µXRF map of the seed beetle showing Se (in red), Zn (in green) and Ca (in blue). The locations where XANES spectra were collected are indicated with numbered circles and results from XANES analyses are displayed in Table 2.
