Figure 2From: Egg survival is reduced by grave-soil microbes in the carrion beetle, Nicrophorus vespilloidesExpression of antimicrobial peptide genes in response to sterile injury (black bars) and septic injury (white bars). Whereas larvae show clear induction of all genes tested, eggs show hardly any induction of antimicrobial peptides at all.
