Figure 4

Transcription of LsRXR in different developmental stages. Two real time PCR assays were used where assay 1 measures all forms of LsRXR whereas assay 2 only measures LsRXR forms containing DBD and LBD (see Figure 1). A) LsRXR is highest transcribed in copepodids (all forms). The longest forms (i.e. those having complete DBD and LBD) comprise about 50% of the total LsRXR in all developmental stages examined. B) Expression pattern of EcR in the same samples as measured in A. C) Quantitative real time PCR demonstrates significant (T-test: p < 0.02) knock-down of LsRXR in the salmon louse.
