Figure 3

Light micrographs of tick tissues from saline- and dsRNA-injected ticks. Saline-injected ticks had normal gut (a), salivary gland (c), spermatogonia and prospermatids (e) and (g) fat body tissues. Tissue degeneration was observed in guts (b), salivary glands (d), spermatogonia and prospermatids (f) and/or fat body cells (h) in ticks injected with subolesin, vATPase, GST, or SelM dsRNA. Mallory's stain, bar = 10 μm.
