Identification of the Larvae of Helicoverpa assulta and H. armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Through Morphological Difference and DNA Barcoding
Abstract
In present study, the real biological pictures, vivid and straightforward, were provided of the larval head and skin of Helicoverpa assulta and H. armigera. These visual pictures can be as the necessary and useful supplement on certain characters of these two larvae. In addition, we tested and verified the morphological result by DNA barcode based on our preliminary studies. Furthermore, we also compared and discussed the advantages and disadvantages between morphological and molecular data.
