Figure 4. Relative expression levels in term of fold change (ΔΔCt) of a known ovary-relevant marker, Vitellogenin (Vg), to those of the housekeeping genes in three ovary sample groups:

Figure 4

(A) Wild broodstock (WB) from four different ovarian maturation stages compared to those of the housekeeping genes in WB stage 1, (B) Domesticated shrimp at 18-month-, 14-month-, and 10-month-old compared to those of the housekeeping genes in domesticated shrimp at 4-month-old, (C) Domesticated broodstock after the ablation for 1 (D1), 4 (D4), and 7 (D7) days compared to those of the housekeeping genes in before the ablation (D0). Different letters above the bars of each graph signify statistical differences in gene expression levels within the sample group.
