Furthermore, an obvious trend seen in S. stercoralis transcript abundance profiles is that they are significantly higher in heterogonically developing larvae (those going to free-living adults) than in homogonically developing larvae (those going to L3i), suggesting that Ss-riok-2 may have an important function in the reproductive development of S. stercoralis ’s free-living adult stages, again supporting its role in the reproduction of this parasite.
