Use of microarray hybridization to identify Brugia genes involved in mosquito infectivity

Brugia malayi and Brugia pahangi microfilariae (mf) require a maturation period of at least 5 days in the mammalian host to successfully infect laboratory mosquitoes. This maturation process coincides with changes in the surface composition of mf that likely are associated with changes in gene expre...
