Figure 2

Relative viability and morphological changes of schistosomes treated with SjVAMP2 specific siRNA. (A) The viability of worms was compared to DEPC control group from three independent experiments. (B) The morphological changes of worms were captured via optical microscopy. Images were derived from 3 randomly selected male worms from each group. Arrows indicated bulb-like structures on the surface of some male schistosomes. (C) The size of male schistosomes was analyzed by imageJ. Data was compared with DEPC control (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01).
