Comparison of exogenous pathogen resistance in the dsLac2- and the dsRed-injected pupae. a Survival curve of the dsLac2- and the dsRed-injected pupae infected by B. bombyseptie (Bb) or S. marcescens (Sm) (N represent the sample size; log rank test, P < 0.01). b Comparison of in vivo melaninization degree in dsLac2- and dsRed-injected pupae infected by Bb or sm (unpaired t-test: t (4) = 6.72, P = 0.0025 for Bb infected group, n = 3; t (4) = 11.89, P = 0.0003 for Sm infected group, n = 3)
