In situ hybridization tests. Example of in situ hybridization results using a DIG-labeled NLRS probe with grossly normal (but NLRS positive) shrimp and with ASDD shrimp. Shown are contiguous sections each from normal and ASDD shrimp stained with H&E and subjected to the in situ hybridization procedure with and without the probe. Nerve cords of both were positive (dark staining) for NLRS (weak in normal shimp), but cytoplasm of neurons of ASDD shrimp only gave positive signals with the NLRS DIG-labeled probe.
