Figure 8. RT-PCR of candidate genes involved in insect hormone pathways.

Figure 8

RT-PCR was performed to validate the expression of twenty selected candidate genes proposed to be involved in JH and ecdysone pathways. RT-PCR products of expected sizes were amplified except for lane 20 (Unigenen12798 [Spot]). (A) M: 1 kb DNA ladder; 1: Unigene12481 (Phm, 1,455 bp); 2: Unigene15996 (Sad, 1,422 bp); 3: CL7713 (Shd, 1,479 bp); 4: CL2776 (Cyp18a1, 1,587 bp); 5: CL5335 (Dib, 1,506 bp); 6: Unigene10748 (Sro, 1,110 bp); 7: Unigene12593 (Sro, 1,182 bp); 8: Unigene19505 (FPPP, 915 bp); 9: CL2037 (FPPP, 918 bp); 10: CL8545 (FOHSDR, 765 bp); 11: Unigene12692 (FOHSDR, 750 bp). (B) M: 1 kb DNA ladder; 12: CL9077 (CYP15A1, 1,521 bp); 13: Unigene14277 (JHE, 1,245 bp); 14: Unigene8839 (JHEH, 1,389 bp); 15: Unigene9157 (JHEH, 1,383 bp); 16: CL987 (JHDK, 549 bp); 17: Unigene21984 (ALDH, 1,494 bp); 18: Unigene9200 (JHAMT, 810 bp); 19: Unigene19886 (Spo, 1,455 bp); 20: Unigene12798 (Spot, 2,000 and 750 bp [expected size: 1,476 bp]). (C) M: 1 kb DNA ladder; 21: partial Unigene19886 (Spo, 1,038 bp); 22: partial Unigene12798 (Spot, 1,011 bp).
