βAOR PCR in Rhipicephalus cell lines. a Detection of βAOR in genomic DNA (gDNA) and complementary DNA (cDNA) of Rhipicephalus microplus cell lines. The expected amplicon of 183 bp was detected in gDNA and cDNA of cell lines BME/CTVM2 (2), BME/CTVM5 (5), BME/CTVM23 (23), BME/CTVM30 (30) and BmVIII-SCC (SCC). BME/CTVM6 (6) gave an alternative amplicon of ~220 bp from both gDNA and cDNA. Additional amplicons of ~245 bp and ~220 bp were also detected in gDNA of BME/CTVM5. b Detection of βAOR in gDNA and cDNA of other tick cell lines. The expected amplicon was detected in gDNA and cDNA of cell lines RAN/CTVM3 (RAN), REN/CTVM32 (REN), RSE/PILS35 (RSE) and RA243, and only in gDNA of RML-RSE (RML). No βAOR gene or transcript was detected in cell lines AVL/CTVM13 (AVL), HAE/CTVM9 (HAE) or IRE/CTVM19 (IRE). Abbreviations: M, Marker; NTC, Non-template control; −ve, reverse transcription negative control
