Abstract excerpt
Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were produced from cDNA libraries for immature L1, mature muscle larva and adult stages of the adenophorean nematode Trichinella spiralis. 10,130 ESTs were grouped into 3454 gene clusters. The clusters represent a conservative estimate of 3262 unique genes. Interspecific comparisons of the predicted proteins support an ancient divergence of clade I nematodes from other nematodes in...
