Relative transcript abundance of LRIM1 in driver and silencer LRIM1 mosquito lines. LRIM1 expression in GAL4::LRIM1-silencer lines F2, M2, and M7 was determined in the midguts and carcasses 24 h post blood meal, and salivary glands 14 days post blood meal. For each genotype the midguts or carcasses of 10 females or salivary glands of 30 females were pooled and RNA extracted. Transcript abundance is shown relative to wild type mosquitoes using ribosomal S7 gene as a calibrator. Bars indicate mean and standard error of the mean of three independent experiments
