Fig. 4

The localization of Hco-DAF-8 in Haemonchus contortus adults by immunofluorescence. ac Localization of Hco-DAF-8 in H. contortus adult females: in the platymyrian muscle cells (msc) under cuticle, in intestine (i) and some eggs (e). gi Localization of Hco-DAF-8 in adult males: in the platymyrian muscle cells (msc) under cuticle, in intestine (i), seminal vesicle (vs) and cement gland (gc). Ovaries (ov), cuticle (cu) and uterus (ut) are also indicated. No fluorescence labelling was observed in negative controls probed with serum representing the pre-bleed prior to immunization (df, jl). DAPI (4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole, dihydrochloride) is used to label the nucleus. Scale-bars: 100 μm
