Fig. 2From: Characterization of the doublesex gene within the Culex pipiens complex suggests regulatory plasticity at the base of the mosquito sex determination cascadeLocation of Cxqdsx RT-PCR primers (not to scale). Common exons are shown in green, the female-specific exon 5 in dark red, and male-specific (UTR in female) exons in blue. The exon4ex extension is represented with a green/white hatched box. The DBD/OD1 domain is indicated with a yellow box and OD2 with an orange box. Red triangles denote stop codonsBack to article page
