From: Identification and expression analysis of two steamer-like retrotransposons in the Chilean blue mussel (Mytilus chilensis)

Fig. 3

Steamer-like elements present on M. chilensis are not correlated with disseminated neoplasia. The expression (A and B) and copy number (C and D) of MchSLE1 (A and C) and MchSLE2 (B and D) in hemocytes was determined by qPCR. The analysis was performed using the standard curve method, with a plasmid containing one copy of each MchSLE and MchαTubulin amplicon. The expression and copy were normalized to αTubulin. A t-test was performed, and non-significant differences were found among normal and DN animals. Note that Y axis are not on the same scale. The black line indicates the average expression of the animal set
