Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
FAW larvae were collected from the corn field in Baoting, Hainan, Southern China (19°14′45.12″N, 109°89′40.40″E) on May 5th, 2019. We established a laboratory colony by feeding the larvae on artificial diet under conditions of 25 ± 1 °C, 14 h:10 h (L:D) photoperiod, and 55 ± 5% relative humidity. The third instar larvae were individually transferred into a small box and reared until pupation. Adults were transferred into a home-made insect raise cage (Patent no. 201921652702.2) after inclusion and fed with 10% hydromel (v/v). Once adequate fourth instar larvae were obtained, we rinsed them in 75% ethanol (v/v) and sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2) twice, respectively. Next, the brain was dissected in PBS containing 1 unit/µL Murine RNase inhibitor (Vazyme, Nanjing, China) under an Olympus SZ61 stereomicroscope (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan). We collected the sample into a 1.5 ml Eppendorf tube for subsequent RNA extraction.

Mated female wasps aged 2–5 days were anesthetized at 4°C for 10 min, rinsed in 75% ethanol (v/v) once, and then rinsed in sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2) thrice. Subsequently, the females were dissected in PBS containing 1 unit/μL Murine RNase inhibitor (Vazyme, Nanjing, China) on an ice plate under a Leica MZ 16A stereomicroscope (Leica, Wetzlar, Germany), the venom apparatus (venom reservoirs and associated glands, henceforth, called the VG) and carcasses (the female body minus venom apparatus, henceforth, called the CA) were collected into 1 mL TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, United States), respectively. Total RNA was extracted according to the manufacturer’s protocol. RNA degradation and contamination were monitored on 1% agarose gels. RNA purity was checked using the NanoPhotometer® spectrophotometer (IMPLEN, CA, United States). RNA concentration was measured using the Qubit® RNA Assay Kit in Qubit® 2.0 Flurometer (Life Technologies, CA, United States). RNA integrity was assessed using the RNA Nano 6000 Assay Kit of the Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100 system (Agilent Technologies, CA, United States).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
