Influence of 20E on expression of BdCHS1 and its two alternative splicing exons. The insects were injected with 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) at day-2 of third-instar larvae, and five individuals each were analyzed 1, 4, 8, and 12 h after treatment using qPCR. α-Tubulin was used as an internal reference gene. Data are means ± SE of three biological replications. (A) BdCHS1; (B) BdCHS1a; (C) BdCHS1b. CK: control insects; 20E: insects injected with 20E. Significantly differences between treatment and control are indicated with * (P < 0.05) or ** (P < 0.01, t test).
