Figure 4

Time-course mRNA expression of the prophenoloxidase-activating enzyme from white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (lvPPAE1) in fluid hemocytes after the shrimp was injected with saline or Vibrio harveyi. Sampling time points were 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 48 h post-injection. Transcript levels were detected by Taqman qRT-PCR. Two sets of data were obtained by normalized to different inferences separately. Five individuals were sampled as replicates. Data were analyzed with Dunnett's t-test and Tukey's range test. Significant differences from the control (0 h, P < 0.05) are indicated by asterisks. Significant differences between challenged and control at each time point are noted by the P value above. (A) Normalized to 18 S rRNA. (B) Normalized to β-actin.
