TABLE 1.

Effects of Frizzled 2 (Fz2) silencing on the number of offspring, hatching rate, gender ratio, and population growth index (PGI).

Treatments	Number of offspring	Hatching rate	Gender ratio	PGI
dsGFP♀ × control♂	230 ± 46.1a	0.78 ± 0.05a	1.14 ± 0.11a	36.7 ± 5.6a
dsFz2♀ × control♂	106.2 ± 25.9b	0.55 ± 0.07b	1.09 ± 0.09a	24.3 ± 3.2b

*Means ± SE of five replicates. Means within columnns followed by different letters are followed by different letters are significantly different at the 5% level (P < 0.05).
