Figure 2From: Gene expression analyses of immune responses in Atlantic salmon during early stages of infection by salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) revealed bi-phasic responses coinciding with the copepod-chalimus transitionExpression changes of proteases in spleen. A: Microarray data are mean log2-ER ± SE for 24 genes with highly coordinated expression profiles. The lists of genes and accession numbers are in Additional file 3. B: RT-qPCR analyses performed with SYBR Green assays. Data are mean -ΔΔCt ± SE. Significant differences from control (n = 4, P < 0.01) are indicated with**. Note significant differences from control of all genes at all time points. CheTry, Chemytrypsin; CarPep, Carboxypeptidase; Ela, Elastase; Try2, trypsin-2; Try3, trypsin-3.Back to article page
