Project description:Transcriptional analysis of sex-regulated genes from male and female dsxM-^VeGFP sexed larvae (1st instar, late 2nd /early 3rd instar and 4th instar), pupae and virgin non-blood-fed 3 day old adult A. gambiae mosquitoes
Project description:Overall, the study aims at obtaining a comprehensive picture of the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, transcriptome using high-coverage RNA-seq of sexed whole-insect samples collected at different developmental time points. This experiment focuses on male and female transcriptomes from 4th instar larvae at 12 and 36 hours, and 10 day and 20 day adult mosquitoes. Three biological replicates per sex are included for the 4th instar 12 hour transcriptomes. A single female embryonic 20 hour transcriptome is also included, which is paired with a male transcriptome from the same 20h embryonic timepoint within accession number E-MTAB-2583.

This experiment focuses on transcriptomes of 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th instar male and female larvae, and 2 day old male and female adults.

This experiment focuses on male and female transcriptomes from 20 hour old embryos, 12 hour old 3rd instar larvae, 24 hour old 4th instar larvae and 10 hour old pupae sampled using a strand-specific RNA-seq approach.
