Abstract:
:An optimized protocol is presented to visualize gene expression in the sedentary beet cyst nematode, Heterodera schachtii, by whole-mount in situ hybridization. Two different probes were used for genes with known expression pattern in other nematodes. Vacuum infiltration of the fixative significantly increased its efficiency and resulted in a nicely preserved morphology. Additional modifications were introduced to simplify and standardize the process.

杂志文章abstract::Host susceptibility to parasites is likely to be influenced by intrinsic factors, such as host oxidative status determined by the balance between pro-oxidant production and antioxidant defences. As a result, host oxidative status acts as an environmental factor for parasites and may constrain parasite development. We ...
