SCN-27D09 is expressed in the dorsal gland of plant-parasitic nematodes. In situ hybridization was performed to detect tissue localization of SCN-27D09 transcript using digoxigenin-labeled sense (a) and antisense (b, c) cDNA probes of SCN-27D09. Parasitic third- and fourth-stage juveniles of Heterodera glycines were used. M, metacorpus; DG, esophageal dorsal gland. Bar = 20 µm
