Mean (±SE) survival rate (%) of each developmental stage of <i>F. virgata</i> reared on non-transgenic or transgenic cotton leaves.

Means ± SE within a column followed by the same letter are not significantly different (P>0.05; independent t-test). The experiment was started with 15 cohorts (replicates) per treatment. †Sex could not be determined before the second instar. *Female mealybugs have only three nymphal instars while males have four nymphal instars.同列内，标注有相同字母的均值±标准误（Standard Error, SE）组间无显著性差异（P>0.05，独立样本t检验）。 本实验每个处理组初始设置15个重复组（cohort，即replicates）。 †：若虫发育至第二龄前无法判断性别。 * 雌性粉蚧仅具有3个若虫龄期，雄性粉蚧则具有4个若虫龄期。
