RmVgR dsRNA silences the transcription of vitellogenin receptor. Representative expression RmVgR gene using RT-PCR performed using cDNA from 6 ovary samples from each group (non-injected; buffer-injected; and RmVgR-dsRNA), dissected day one after female dropping. Rhipicephalus microplus α-tubulin was used as a positive control. Amplicons were separated in a 2% agarose gel
