Figure 2

qRT-PCR analysis of tissue-specific relative expression levels of Krüppel homolog 1 (Kr-h1) across castes of B. terrestris. Kr-h1 is a transcription factor downstream of juvenile hormone receptors. It is downregulated in virgin queens, and upregulated in males and diapausing queens (see main text). Data represent mean ± SEM (n = 3–5) of normalized and rescaled expression levels. (A) Heatmap: Log-scale. Bar graphs: Relative transcript levels in linear scale (B) and log-transformed scale (C). Significantly different expression levels are indicated by different letters (p < 0.05).
