a Two second-stage juvenile H. glycines nematodes were fed IR680-labeled Cry14Ab at 1 mg/mL in the presence of the feeding stimulant octopamine for 24 h. Each nematode is shown under white light on the left, and with a Cy5 filter set on the right. The experiment was performed twice with 200 nematodes under each condition. About half ingested labeled protein, and three representative nematodes were photographed each time, of which two are shown here. b A nematode that was not fed labeled Cry14Ab, under white light on the left, and with a Cy5 filter set on the right. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
