Up-regulation of GST transcription in permethrin resistant Sarcoptes scabiei. Total RNA was extracted from pools of female mites (n = 4 pools per population) and reverse transcribed; GST transcripts were amplified using GST gene-specific primers in quantitative PCR, and normalised using levels of β-actin transcription. Bars represent mean +/- SE. ***: p < 0.001, **: p < 0.01 when compared to permethrin sensitive controls (b): Crude (non-normalised) fold-changes in expression in resistant compared to sensitive mites, showing little change in β-actin transcription between groups.
