Photographs of representative adult female lice from control (a) and LsHSCARB knockdown group (c). Toluidine blue colored histological sections of oocytes found in indicated areas in genital segments of these lice are shown in right panel for control (b) and knockdown (d) lice. Yellow lines are drawn along two chorions in each group (b,d) to indicate the boundaries of one oocyte. Lipid droplets are observed throughout the oocytes. Scale bars: (a,c = 5 mm, b,d = 50 µm).
