Treatment | Body Length (mm) | Rst for Body Length | Body Width (mm) | Rst for Body Width |
---|---|---|---|---|
Control-24 h | 0.57 ± 0.01 a | 24 h Rst = 14.36% | 0.28 ± 0.01 a,b | 24 h Rst = −0.16% |
GC16-24 h | 0.49 ± 0.01 b | 0.28 ± 0.01 a,b | ||
Control-48 h | 0.56 ± 0.01 a | 48 h Rst = 24.69% | 0.30 ± 0.01 a | 48 h Rst = 14.53% |
GC16-48 h | 0.42 ± 0.01 c | 0.26 ± 0.01 b |
Note: Rst indicates the relative shrinkage rate. Control/GC16-24 h/48 h indicates the mites were treated with water/GC16 for 24 h/48 h, respectively. Data are expressed as mean ± SE. Different lowercase letters in the same column indicate significant differences between treatments (p < 0.05). One-way ANOVA and Tukey’s honestly significant difference (HSD) test were adopted. The F and p values for HSD test of body length and body width are F(3,20) = 18.431, p < 0.001 and F(3,20) = 2.972, p = 0.056, respectively.
