This list includes the probe name, gene accession number, fold change, as well as p- and q-values for protein homology (BlastX). In the gene accession columns, data with identifiers such as CNUS0000098407 were retrieved from the S. japonicum genome project database (LSBI; http://lifecenter.sgst.cn/schistosoma/cn/genomeProject.do; in Japanese) and those with identifiers FN326902 were retrieved from The European Molecular Biology Laboratory database (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/). The FDR (q-value) was determined using the false discovery rate as a control using R statistical language (http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/qvalue.html).
