Frequency distribution for motility of S. digitata larvae at 14 dpi in, a siRNA non-injected, b SDNP siRNA-injected, c GFP siRNA-injected and d buffer-injected mosquitoes. The scoring scheme was: 1, immobile or dead; 2, compromised motility; 3, partial movement of the body; 4, slightly reduced motion in the body; 5, all parts of the body are vigorously twisting. Values in between 5 and 1 in the scale were assigned according to the decreasing motility blindly by an independent evaluator. Five replicates were performed for each experiment. Bars represent mean ± SD
