Fig. 2: Statistical analysis of abnormal wing scales and wing after knockdown of four His-rich CP genes and Bmlac2A by RNAi.

From: Lepidopteran wing scales contain abundant cross-linked film-forming histidine-rich cuticular proteins

a Reduction of mRNAs by siRNA confirmed by RT-qPCR (n = 3). Red asterisks, control (GFP); black dots, siRNA treated. b Percent of abnormal wing scales after RNAi (n = 9). c Percent of abnormal wings after RNAi (n = 3). Blue, GFP control; magenta, BmorCPR152; green, BmorCPR82; purple, BmorCPR57, orange, BmorCPR129, black, Bmlac2A. Significance difference: *P value < 0.05, **P value < 0.01, ***P value < 0.001, and ****P value < 0.0001.
