Project description:Chelonus formosanus is an important parasitic natural enemy of Lepidopteran insects and has great value in the biological control of insect pests. To screen the reference genes in the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) assay of Chelonus formosanus, six candidate reference genes were selected based on transcriptome data, including GAPDH, ACT, TU, TF, HSP, and RP. The expression stability of these six internal reference genes was determined by qRT-PCR in different tissues (head, chest, abdomen) and at different temperatures (11℃and 41℃), as well as with two insecticides (dinotefuran and chlorantraniliprole).
