Comparative Hemolymph Proteomic and Enzymatic Analyses of Two Strains of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus Ticks Resistant and Susceptible to Ixodicides

Figure 3

2D electrophoresis gel of hemolymph proteins of susceptible MJ and resistant SA tick strains. (a) 26 proteins were identified by PDQuest software in susceptible strain MJ and 5 proteins in resistant strain SA. 28 proteins were identified as common proteins of both strains. Yellow and red squares correspond to those protein spots that were selected for sequencing. (b) 3D surface plot of 2D electrophoresis. Protein concentration differences are observed in each plot.
