Expression of Gb’per, Gb’cry2, and Gb’c-fosB in the optic lobe of the cricket Gryllus bimaculatus. a-c In situ hybridization of Gb’per (red) and Gb’cry2 (blue) in the optic lobe sampled at ZT18. b and c shows magnification of areas near outer chiasma indicated in a. Short arrows indicate the cells coexpressing Gb’per and Gb’cry2. d In situ PCR of Gb’c-fosB in the optic lobe after 1 h light exposure at ZT20. Gb’c-fosB was strongly expressed in the cells near outer chiasma and along the outer surface of lamina. For further explanations see text
