a Standard errors (SE) were estimated by using the bootstrap technique with 100,000 re-samplings.

b Significant difference at P < 0.05 between two different treatments and generations were compared with paired bootstrap test implemented in TWOSEX-MSChart. The lower-case letters show significant differences between control and flupyradifurone treatments in the same generation, while the capital letters indicate the significant differences between generations within the same treatment (P < 0.05).
