(A) Splicing patterns of the Bmdsx gene in mutants. Disruption of BmSiwi and BmAsh2 produced BmdsxM (the male-specific transcriptional product of Bmdsx) in female animals. (B) Up-regulation of BmMasc in Δsiwi and Δash2 females. Silkworm ribosome protein 49 (Bmrp49) was used as the internal reference gene. Three individual replicates were used for qRT-PCR. The error bars represent the mean ± S.E.M and asterisks stand for significance with p<0.05.
