Fig. 4

Schematic representation of common and unique immune-related differentially expressed genes identified based on comparisons between FP and FC samples. (a) Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). (b) Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). (c) Serine proteases (SPs) and SP inhibitors (serpins). (d) Mucins and others. The FP1, FP3, and FP5 represent the fat body of H. armigera larvae parasitized by O. sinensis at 1, 3, and 5 dpp, respectively, whereas FC1, FC3, and FC5 represent the fat body of non-parasitized larvae (controls) at the same time points. Genes in overlapping regions were identified as differentially expressed in two or three groups. Red, blue, and purple arrows represent expression level changes in FP1 vs. FC1, FP3 vs. FC3, and FP5 vs. FC5, respectively. Upward- and downward-pointing arrows represent the directions of expression level changes
