GDP-L-fucose synthesis- and transport-associated gene transcription in larvae of Schistosoma mansoni . Real-time qPCR was used to examine GMD, GMER and GFT transcription in miracidia (Mir) and 2- and 10-day in vitro-cultivated primary sporocysts (2dS and 10dS, respectively). Transcript abundances in primary sporocysts were compared to miracidia (arbitrarily set at 1), and data were analyzed across three biological replicates using heteroscedastic two-sample t- and Wilcoxon rank sum tests, with significance set at p≤0.05 (indicated by *) and p=0.10 (indicated by †), respectively.
