A custom Agilent miRNA microarray was used to compare the miRNA expression profile of A. gambiae midguts at 18 and 24 hr after P. falciparum infection to that of mosquitoes fed on non-infected human blood. Log₂FC values were determined from the mean expression value across three biological replicates, following background subtraction and normalization to the 75^th percentile. P-values were determined using a moderated t-test. Only miRNAs detected above background level in at least two of the three biological replicates are shown.
