Caste differentiation pathway in H. sjostedti (A) and diagrams of sampling scheme used in this study (B–D). B Sampling schedules of soldier differentiation pathway, indicating six stages sampled for real-time qPCR (i.e., Pe, JHA1w, JHA2w, JHAPS, NPS and Sol). C Outline of the neotenic differentiation process, in which four developmental stages were compared by real-time qPCR (Pe, 1w, 2w, Neo). D In the process of alate differentiation, pseudergate and each nymphal stage (i.e., Pe, Ny, NyGp, NyS and Ala) were compared
