Transcriptional response of humoral immune genes to wasp exposure larvae were injected with oil, wasp + oil, or unchallenged. RNA from the fat body was sequenced 24 h post treatment. A The number of genes with significant changes in expression compared with unchallenged conditions. B The expression of 29 genes with significant changes in expression after immune challenge. C Expression of selected genes in the fat body measured by quantitative PCR 24 h after injection with oil droplets or wasp + oil droplets. For each treatment, 4 pools of 5–7 larvae were used to extract RNA
