Figure 6

Expression of O. turicata subolesin is developmentally regulated. A) Total RNA from unfed larvae, nymphs and female adults was prepared and amount of O. turicata subolesin transcripts were quantified by QRT-PCR normalized to O. turicata 28S levels. Each triangle/square/circle represents one individual tick. B) Expression of subolesin transcripts in salivary glands (SG) and midguts (MG) isolated from fed adult female O. turicata ticks are shown. Each inverted triangle/circle represent one individual tissues sample isolated from one tick. C) QRT-PCR analysis of subolesin mRNA levels in fed O. turicata female ticks at different days post-feeding is shown. Each circle represents one tick. Statistics was performed using the Student’s t test and the P value is shown.
