Patterns of variation and an RNAi experiment on protein F. (a) The abundance of protein F in the female reproductive tract following either a conpopulation (top) or heterospecific (bottom) copulation. (b) The measured relative abundance of protein F relative to patterns of egg laying for conpopulation and heterospecific copulations. (c) A gel showing that RNAi can knock down the abundance of AsocCSP1 (a.k.a. protein F). (d) An RNAi experiment showing patterns of egg laying in conspecific and heterospecific matings.
