Figure 7

Size distribution and shape factor of magnetic particles calculated from the transmission electron micrographs in adults of BPH, Nilaparvata lugens.

(a–h) size distribution and shape factor of the brachypterous & macropterous male and brachypterous & macropterous female adults with N = 268, 317, 320 and 343, respectively. N, total number of magnetic particles used in this calculation. Five hundred individual insects for each insect stage, sex and wing form were sampled to get the total number of particles. nd - not detected.
