description: Array Designer 4.2 software (Premier Biosoft International) was used to design a core set of 57- to 60-mer oligonucleotides for all predicted C. quinquefasciatus transcripts according to the software developer's instructions.  Oligonucleotides were complementary to regions within 1 kb of the 3' UTR of transcripts and had a minimal sequence identity overlap with non-target transcript sequences. Glass slide oligonucleotide microarrays were constructed by Agilent Technologies (www.agilent.com).
