Steinernema carpocapsae Breton small RNA sequencing insect in vitro simulation system, from "The genome, transcriptome, and proteome of the nematode Steinernema carpocapsae: evolutionary signatures of a pathogenic lifestyle". Steinernema carpocapsae

We report small RNA sequencing of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae. The nematodes were grown in liquid culture in homogenates of pig kidney/fat and infective juveniles were gathered. Then Galleria mellonella insect haemolymph was added to simulate insect infection, control nematodes weren't added haemolymph. Nematodes were collected after two hours after haemolymph addition. Overall design: infective juveniles S. carpocapsae were incubated with and without haemolymph, three replicates
