Abstract
In a previous work Ancylostoma caninum sex-specific genes had being identified, however without confirmation, by using an non specific RT-PCR comparing male and female cDNA. In this work more fragments had been identified and a semi-quantitative RT-PCR carried out in order to confirm the sex-specific character of the transcripts obtained. Four fragments were confirmed as sex-specific or as being expressed more in one sex than the other.
