Fig. 2. Light microscopic immunohistochemistry using the anti-Papilio RBP in the retina of Papilio xuthus. (A) Schematic drawing of an ommatidium. Longitudinal view. Arrows on the left indicate the approximate locations where sections B–D were obtained. BM, basement membrane; C, corneal facet lens; CC, crystalline cone; PPC, primary pigment cell; Pr, photoreceptor; Rh, rhabdom; SPC, secondary pigment cell; TC, tracheal cell. (B) Cross section through the distal portion of the retina. The pigment cells (black arrowheads) were labeled. Photoreceptors (white arrowheads) were not labeled. Non-immune serum gave no labeling (inset). (C) Transverse section through the proximal part of the retina. The secondary pigment cells (black arrowheads) were labeled, but no photoreceptors were labeled. (D) Longitudinal section around the basement membrane (BM). The tracheal cells (white arrowheads) as well as the secondary pigment cells (black arrowheads) were strongly labeled. Scale bars, 30 µm.
