From: Musk gland seasonal development and musk secretion are regulated by the testis in muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus)

RNA-seq analysis and RT-PCR results of AR in musk glands. a The expression levels of two individuals in the same season were similar (p > 0.05), and the expression levels of two individuals in different seasons were significantly different (p < 0.01). (*p > 0.05; **p < 0.01) Individuals 1 and 2: breeding season. Individuals 3 and 4: non-breeding season. b Comparison of androgen receptor mRNA sequence of rat (Rattus norvegicus) and muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus). (Dotted lines represents for the sequence not mentioned on purpose; straight line represents for the missing sequence during the RNA-sequencing analysis; the complete CDS results were presented in Additional file 1: Figure S1). c Positive bands of AR and GAPDH. d The comparison of AR mRNA expression between the two seasons. And the value of breeding season is higher than the value in non-breeding season. (0.01 < p  <  0.05)
