Expression of gmmdripa, gmmdripb and gmmaqp5 transcripts during tsetse pregnancy.

(A) gmmdripa, (B) gmmdripb and (C) gmmaqp5. Transcript levels were determined by qRT-PCR analysis. The data were analyzed with software version 3.1 (Bio-Rad). Data represent the mean ± SE for four samples and was normalized to tubulin. * indicates that the expression is significantly higher (P<0.05) than in newly emerged teneral flies (0 d).
