Relative expression of genes involved in tyrosine metabolism and dopamine metabolism in the L and S strains. a: Metabolic pathways involving the conversion of tyrosine to homogentisate and N-acetyldopamine in insects. Ddc: DOPA decarboxylase, Hpd: 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase, Nat: N-acetyltransferase, Tat: tyrosine aminotransferase, Th: tyrosine hydroxylase. b: Relative gene expression of Tcddc and Tcnat, as determined by qPCR. c: Relative gene expression of Tcddc and Tcnat, as determined by qPCR. Groups were compared between the L and S strains by the t-test.
