Fig. 5From: Characterization and function analysis of a novel gene, Hc-maoc-1, in the parasitic nematode Haemonochus contortus Transcriptional levels of Hc-maoc-1 at different developmental stages of H. contortus. The abundance of Hc-maoc-1 transcripts was quantified by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) in different developmental stages or sexes of Haemonchus contortus: first-stage larvae (L1), second-stage larvae (L2), third-stage larvae (L3), diapausing stage (dauer), female fourth-stage (L4f), male fourth-stage (L4m), adult female (Af), and adult male (Am). All gene expression levels were normalized to those of the β-tubulin geneBack to article page
