The expression profiles of DOPAL synthase gene with gapdh as the reference gene. Bars represent the standard deviation. a Temporal expression of DOPAL synthase in different developmental stages. b Spatial expression of DOPAL synthase in different tissues of Ae. aegypti. c Sex-different expression of DOPAL synthase in the cuticle of female and male adults. Abbreviations: L1, first-instar larvae; L2, second-instar larvae; L3, third-instar larvae; L4, fourth-instar larvae; WFP, white female pupae; WMP, white male pupae; BFP, black female pupae; BMP, black male pupae; FA, female adults; MA, male adults; NH, head; NT, thorax; NM, midgut; NC, cuticle; MC, cuticle of male adults; FC, cuticle of female adults; BFC, cuticle of blood-fed female adults
