Figure 4. Relative transcript abundances of CvHsps of different developmental stage under thermal stress.

Figure 4

The quantity of CvHsp mRNA is normalized to the abundance of Cv18SrRNA. Subsequently, the normalized value of each CvHsp is divided by the amount of the corresponding CvHsp at 24°C of each developmental stage, respectively. Columns topped by different letters indicate significantly different means within the relative transcript abundances of a given CvHsp gene under different temperatures by ANOVA analysis (p<0.05). A-G represents first-instar larva, early second-instar larva, later second-instar larva, third-instar larva, pupa, female adult and male adult, respectively.
