Stylet cuticular gene-directed mutagenesis impairs the pea aphid vector capacity to transmit a plant virus
Fig 5
Distribution of RR-1 stylins in wild-type and Stylin-01 mutant aphids.
Representative images of labeling of stylin peptides observed in maxillary stylets of WT, Sty01-KO and Sty01-Cter aphids. The primary antibodies used (Ab anti-1-11, Ab anti-1-15, Ab anti-1-16) and the stylins they theoretically target (Stylin-01, -02, -03, -04/-04bis) is indicated above the images (S2 Fig and S1 Table). The stylins detected in aphid stylets are indicated in green at the bottom of each image. The main difference observed at the acrostyle surface is outlined in red. Bars: 10 µm.
