Expression of immune genes in Lineus ruber. A Schematic representation of Lineus ruber anatomy. B–P Whole mount in situ hybridization (WMISH) of B, C genes belonging to the Toll pathway and D to the Imd pathway and E, F of the complement system and G–P lectins and the C1q family. The name of each gene is indicated above each panel. Besides B’, all panels show dorso-ventral (d,v) views, being anterior (a) orientation to the top. B’ Lateral (l) orientation. Scale bars indicate 250 μm, except for the scale bar in B’, which indicates 100 μm. br, brain; bv, blood vessel; cn, cephalic nerve; fo, frontal sensory organ; g, gut; l: lateral view; lnc, lateral nerve cord; m, mouth; pb, proboscis. Scheme drawn after [64]
