Functional analysis of MaltHSP70-2 using RNA interference. a, b Changes in gene expression levels of HSP families in male and female adults of Monochamus alternatus when the expression of MaltHSP70-2 was knockdown. Red and blue bars indicate up-regulated and down-regulated genes in the heatmap, respectively. c, d Changes in survival times male and female adults of Monochamus alternatus after heat shock treatment when the expression of MaltHSP70-2 was knockdown. Significant differences in survival times between control and dsHSP70-2, dsGFP and dsHSP70-2 were determined by Student’s t-test (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ns, not significant)
