Project name: Biomphalaria glabrata

Description: Differential transcriptomic responses of Biomphalaria glabrata (Gastropoda, Mollusca) to bacteria and metazoan parasites Schistosoma mansoni and Echinostoma paraensei (Digenea, Platyhelminthes).Transcriptional profiling of Biomphalaria glabrata comparing control uninfected M-line B. glabrata with five experimental groups. The experimental groups are: wounded but not infected M-line, Escherichia coli infected, Micrococcus luteus infected, Echinostoma paraensei infected and Schistosoma mansoni infected at 12 hours time point post infection.Overall design: Seven groups of samples: two controls, wounded, two bacterial- and two trematode-infected B. glabrata were analyzed in triplicate, using universal RNA reference.

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression

Sample scope: Multiisolate
