Figure 4

Mean normalized expression patterns of the indicated mRNA transcripts of individual larvae (stage 5–10). Results for pepsinogen A2 precursor, gastric H⁺/K⁺-ATPase subunit α and β, Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase subunit α and ghrelin mRNA transcripts are shown as mean ± SEM of the normalized expression (using the reference gene eEF1A1). Mean values with different letters are significantly different (One Way ANOVA, p < 0.05).
