Differential expression of TCT-induced AMPs in bacteriomes. The quantification was performed by RT-qPCR on S. oryzae bacteriomes and carcasses of symbiotic weevils, as well as on whole aposymbiotic larvae. Green dots: PBS-injected larvae (control); red squares: TCT-injected larvae. Asterisks denote statistical significance (ANOVA with Kruskal-Wallis test, *p ≤ 0.05). Error bars represent SE. Overall, the AMP induction in response to TCT is observed in both bacteriomes and carcasses of symbiotic weevils, as well as in aposymbiotic weevils
