Functional analyses of effects of RNA interference of Dfd on soldier differentiation, and of abd-A and Abd-B on neotenic differentiation. A Head and mandible features in Pseudergate, Presoldier, GFP RNAi and Dfd RNAi-treated and molted individuals are shown. B Female Sternite morphologies were examined in each category: pseudergate, neotenic, abd-A RNAi-, Abd-B RNAi- GFP RNAi-treated individuals after molt. As indicated in schematic diagram “VII” indicates the seventh sternite, arrowhead denotes the styli (“st”) and arrow shows the cerci (“ce”)
