From: Molecular characterization of immune responses of Helicoverpa armigera to infection with the mermithid nematode Ovomermis sinensis

Fig. 1

Parasitism by Ovomermis sinensis decreased Helicoverpa armigera survival. (a) Survival curves of H. armigera larvae infected with O. sinensis (red line; n = 50) in comparison with non-parasitized larvae (control; blue line; n = 50). O. sinensis emergence started at 9 d post parasitism (dpp), causing a sharp decline in the survival rate of H. armigera larvae. Significant difference (p < 0.0001, Log-rank test) was observed between O. sinensis-infected larvae and control groups. (b) O. sinensis emerged partially (upper panel) or completely (lower panel) from H. armigera larva
