Schematic of gut sample collection: A collection of RNA-seq and proteome samples were taken from different larval stages and compartments of the Helicoverpa armigera alimentary canal. Collection of L2, L3, and L4 whole midguts allowed for the comparison across larval stages. Collection of different compartments of the L5 plant-fed midgut allowed for the comparison of how spatial regulation of gene expression looked across the midgut
