Identification and characterization of AiPLRP2-like in bay scallop. A Visualization of differentially expressed genes in VMs (cluster 6) and AMs (cluster 12) between MG and DG. B. The phylogenetic tree was constructed based on PLRP2s (-likes) sequences from bay scallop and other representative species (invertebrates and vertebrates shown with light red, light yellow and blue backgrounds, respectively. C Predicted protein domain architecture of AiPLRP2-like and other representative species PLPR2s (-likes) determined by SMART analysis. D In situ hybridization analysis of AiPLRP2-like in NG (I), DG-without probe (II), and DG (III). E Alterations in HR, ABT and AiPLRP2-like relative expression at the resting and thermal stage at 24 h post injection of siRNA- AiPLRP2-like and PBS. F The changes of TG content in NIG and SIG during resting and thermal, respectively. The vertical bars mentioned-above represent the mean ± SD (n = 4) and the statistical significance was determined by a two-sided t-test and the P-values were shown above the plot
