δ13C values of hornet body tissues fed with 13C-β-alanine and 13C-proline, and their control. (A) brain tissues, (B) muscle tissues, (C) fat body tissues, and (D) ovarian tissues. Note that lower negative or positive δ13C values indicate higher tracer content. The boxes represent the first and third quartiles and the median. The whiskers represent the maximum and minimum values. The circles represent the outliers. Different letters indicate a pairwise-comparison with P < 0.05.
