Fig 2. Fecundity in M. domestica injected with 5 μg of dsRNA constructs designed against Ae. aegypti RPS6 (dsAaRPS6) and M. domestica dsRPS6 7 days post-injection.

Fig 2

Numbers of eggs laid by the dsAaRPS6 and dsRPS6 treatments were normalized against the control (dsGFP) treatment as partial egg clutches were collected. Significant reduction when compared to dsGFP was seen in the fly dsRPS6 treatment but not in the mosquito dsAaRPS6, thereby showing a species specific RNAi response. Error bars represent mean±SE and * represents significance at P<0.05. Numbers at the base of columns indicate the total number of individuals injected. Data represents 3 replicate experiments.
