Relative expression of 4 GPCR-related genes analyzed by qRT-PCR in mosquito strains of Cx.quinquefasciatus.
A. Relative expression of a GPCR-related gene, CPIJ019111, in 4th instar larvae of S-Lab, HAmCqG0 and HAmCqG8. B. Relative expression of 2 GPCR-related genes, CPIJ014419 and -007717, in 4th instar larvae of S-Lab, MAmCqG0 and MAmCqG6. C. Relative expression of a GPCR-related gene, CPIJ014334, in 3-day-old adult S-Lab, MAmCqG0 and MAmCqG6. The relative gene expression shown along the Y axis is the ratio of the gene expression in each resistant strain compared with the susceptible strain. The results are shown as the mean ± S.E. There was significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) in the levels of P450 gene expression among the samples with the different alphabetic letter (i.e., a, b, or c).
