Project description:Transcriptome analysis to determine the impact of oral exposure (in a sugar meal) to the liquid supernatant (i.e. LB culture media) of Chromobacterium sp. Panama biofilm culture. The biofilm supernatant (i.e. media) was first filtered with a 0.2uM filter to remove all live bacterial cells. It was then mixed with 10% sucrose, and a control sucrose meal was mixed with filtered LB. Mosquitoes were exposed to each sugar meal for 24 hours and then midguts were dissected from 20 adult females per treatment. The entire experiment was performed 4 independent times.
