Effects of Hc-cap-15 siRNA soaking treatment on Haemonchus contortus larval development. a Morphology of the mouth capsule of exsheathed L3 (xL3). b Morphology of the mouth capsule of L4s. c Hc-cap-15 transcription abundance of H. contortus larvae after 96 h of RNAi by real-time PCR. d Developmental rate (%) of L4s (n = 100) on day 7 after RNAi. e Body width of Hc-cap-15 siRNA-treated L4s (n = 15). f Body length of Hc-cap-15 siRNA-treated L4s (n = 15). Scale bar: 30 μm. Asterisks indicate a significant difference between groups at ***P < 0.001; ns, no significance. L4s, Fourth-stage larvae; siRNA, small interfering RNA
