Figure 9. Silencing of LvIAP2 led to 100% mortality in L. vannamei within 48 hours.

Figure 9

(A) Expression of LvIAP2 in the hemocyte of dsLvIAP2-injected shrimp was significantly suppressed by dsRNA-mediated RNAi. (B) The cumulative mortality rate of shrimp injected with dsGFP (control) or dsLvIAP2. The chi-square statistic was calculated to assess the differences in mortality rates by comparing the mortality of dsLvIAP2- injection group with that of the dsGFP- injection group (***p < 0.001).
