Zebrafish IRF family genes are transcriptionally induced in zebrafish tissues by SVCV infection. zebrafish adults were intraperitoneally injected with SVCV virus of 1×10⁷ TCID₅₀/ml (25μL/fish). 48h later, five tissues, including gill, spleen, head kidney, body kidney, and liver, were sampled for extraction of total RNAs followed by qRT-PCR analyses of 11 zebrafish IRF family genes (A), zebrafish IRF4b (B), and zebrafish IFNφ1, IFNφ3 and Mxb (C). The relative expression values of a given gene were normalized to β-actin in the same sample. Error bars represent SDs obtained by measuring each sample in triplicate. (***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05, ns, no significant).
