Genital glands of the wild type and ap mutant female adult.
(a) The genital gland of the ap/+ap female adult. The female moths were mated for 6 h before dissection. The arrow indicates the normal bursa copulatrix with seminal fluid. (b) The genital gland of the ap/ap female adult. The female moths were mated for 6 h before dissection. The arrow indicates the degraded bursa copulatrix. (c) Enlargement of the bursa copulatrix in (a). (d) Enlargement of the bursa copulatrix in (b). (e) Bursa copulatrix of the ap/+ap female moth without mating. (f) Bursa copulatrix of the ap/ap female moth without mating. The green dots indicated the outline of the bursa copulatrix and the blue dots indicated the sperm canal. Bar = 1 mm.
