Rhimi-CAP2bR RNAi silencing using the dsRNA ds1102-1200. Rhimi-CAP2bR silencing was evaluated by qRT-PCR analyses of partially fed females from all treatments. a Whole tick, 3 days on animals, b carcass, c female reproductive system, d synganglion, e salivary glands, f Malpighian tubules. All tissues (b–e) were from female ticks 5 days on calves. Different lowercase letters above graph indicate significant difference at P < 0.05), based on statistical analysis using one-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. Twelve (n = 12) biological replicates were analyzed per tissue and treatment
