From: Host range and virulence of Metarhizium pingshaense against Chilo species and expression of fungal virulence genes in Conogethes punctiferalis

Fig. 8

Relative expression levels of (A) chitinase and (B) protease genes in Conogethes punctiferalis infected by Metarhizium pingshaense strain IISR-EPF-14 at 72, 96, and 120 h post-infection. The relative expression of each target gene was calculated according the ΔΔCT method using actin gene as endogenous control. Values represent the mean of two technical and three biological replicates. Bars with the same letter are not significantly different according to Tukey’s HSD test (α = 0.05).
