Variation in SR-C gene transcript levels measured by quantitative RT-PCR in response to injection of Sephadex beads in the hemocyte population collected 6 to 7 hours after injection. Calculated mean of the relative cDNA starting quantity (N0) and consequential fold changes (B/C: beads/control). Fold change threshold at 1.5 for quantitative RT-PCR analyses, with FDR median and 90th percentiles at 0%.
