Fig. 1.
Expression patterns of aromatase mRNA in Xenopus at the larval stage. Aromatase mRNA levels were quantified in the mixture of ZZ and ZW brains at stages 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, and 56 (A) and in the ZZ or ZW brain, gonads, liver, and heart at stages 50 and 56 (B). The relative transcription levels of aromatase mRNA were normalized to the transcription level of EF-1αs mRNA. The expression level in brains at stage 50 was set at 100%. Each real-time RT-PCR analysis was performed at least in triplicate. Error bars represent the standard error (SE) of means. An asterisk indicates a significant difference of mRNA expression level between ZZ and ZW using a Student t-test (∗P < 0.05). Image published in: Iwabuchi J et al. (2013) Copyright © 2013.
