Knockdown of HaMet in 5th-instar H. armigera larvae. (A) The induction of HaMet expression by Methoprene (JH analog) or 20E. (B) The expression levels of HaMet in larval midgut after dsGFP or dsHaMet treatment examined at 24, 48, 72, and 96 h after treatment. (C) Statistical analysis of the pupation time and pupation rate after HaMet knockdown (30 larvae, three replicates). (D) The abnormal pupation after HaMet knockdown. Error bars indicate SE, denotes P < 0.05, ∗∗denotes P < 0.01 (Student’s t-test). Different letters indicate significant difference between specimens (P < 0.05). ns, indicates no significant difference (P > 0.05).
