Figure 4. Differential expression patterns of the M. destructor
GSTs during compatible and incompatible interactions with wheat.
Quantitative analysis was performed using RNA samples from larvae
participating in compatible interactions (Biotype L Hessian flies on
susceptible ‘Newton’ wheat) and from larvae
participating in incompatible interactions (Biotype L Hessian flies on
resistant ‘Iris’ wheat) 1 through 4 days (d)
post hatch. Values represent the Log of the mean relative expression
value (REV) plotted against each of the four time points examined for
(A) MdesGST-1 (B) MdesGST-2 and (C)
MdesGST-3. REVs for all genes were calculated
relative to the expression of a M. destructor ubiquitin
gene. The standard error in all panels is represented by the error bar
for two biological replicates (two technical replicates within
each).
