Energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) analysis of isolated magnetic particles from the abdomens of adult BPHs, Nilaparvata lugens.
(A,C,E,G) show transmission electron microscopic images with selected areas (pink boxes) for EDX analysis of macropterous females and males and brachypterous females and males respectively; (B,D,F,H) show the corresponding EDX spectra over the same selected area, respectively. Five hundred adults were used for the analysis.
