PCR and RT-PCR detection of NLRS in ventral nerve cords. Analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (A) and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) (B) products with primers specific to the NLRS sub-element in the ventral nerve cords of cultivated shrimp. Lane M, marker; -, negative control (sterile water); N, DNA and RNA extracts from normal shrimp; A, DNA and RNA extracts from ASDD shrimps and +, positive control (ASDE-plasmid). Asterisks (white for normal shrimp and red for ASDD shrimp) indicate strong reactions for NLRS RT-PCR products.
