Dataset: Plant silicon defence disrupts cryptic colouration in an insect herbivore by restricting carotenoid sequestration into the haemolymph

This dataset supports a study investigating how plant silicon influences carotenoid and chlorophyll sequestration in Helicoverpa armigera larvae, and how these changes affect the expression of larval green cryptic colouration. The associated article has been accepted for publication in Physiological Entomology.
