Simple Summary The reference gene is the key to verifying the relative expression of target
genes. However, the expression of common housekeeping genes is not stable under
different experimental conditions, which may lead to misleading gene expression results. In
this study, the stability of thirteen housekeeping genes of the rice pest Cnaphalocrocis
medinalis at different developmental stages, larvae tissues, rice feedings, temperature
treatments, and adult ages, nutritional conditions, mating statuses and different take-off …
