Fig. 4. Relative amounts of Vg mRNA in the fat bodies of L. passim-infected and uninfected honey bees.
Relative amounts of Vg mRNA in the fat bodies of L. passim-infected (Infected, n = 13) and uninfected honey bees (Control, n = 14) were measured at 20 days after the infection under hive condition. The samples were obtained by two independent experiments. Mean values ± SD (error bars) are shown. Unpaired t test (two-tailed) was used for the statistical analysis (*P < 0.05).
