Table 5.

Female-specific SAGE tags. Group I, transcripts encode genes encoding structural proteins of the eggshell; Group II, transcripts encode enzymes involved in formation of the egg shell; Group III, female-specific transcripts encoding proteins not directly involved in eggshell formation; and Group IV, partial list of female-specific SAGE tags with unknown function. Abbreviations are: subadult/liver worms (SA_Liver); adult male worms/single-sex infection (AM_SS); adult female worms/single-sex infection (AF_SS); adult male worms/mixed sex infection (AM_MS); and adult female worms/mixed sex infection (AF_MS).
