Figure 3. In situ localization of transcripts in adult worms.

In situ hybridization experiments using DIG-labelled antisense- (A–C–E) and sense-RNA probes (B–D–F) of SmSak. SmSak transcripts were localized mainly in female reproductive organs: vitellarium and ovary in female worms (A–C–E) and to a lesser extent, in the testes of male worms (A). Scale bars = 100 µm (A–B–E–F), 50 µm (C, D). Abbreviations: te, testes; o, ovary; io, immature ovary; mo, mature ovary; v, vitellarium.
