| Algorithm | Differentially expressed genes in all pairwise comparisons (parasitic vs. free-living; parasitic vs. iL3; and iL3 vs. free-living) were determined for S.ratti and S.stercoralis using the R (version 3.1.2) package edgeR version 3.6.8. Genes with less than one count per million reads were excluded. Genes were considered to be differentially expressed if the false discovery rate (FDR) was <= 0.001 and the fold change was >= 2. | Description | Transcripts that showed significantly decreased expression at infective third-stage larva stage, comparing to parasitic female stage (collected from S. ratti-infected rats). |

| The Strongyloides life-cycle stage during which a female adult worm produces larval progeny parthenogenetically within the host organism. | Strongyloides parasitic female | WBls:0000681 | ||
| Strongyloides infective stage L3 larval stage. This stage can develop as a part of a free-living life-cycle, or from a parasitic, parthenogenic female stage. | Strongyloides infective L3 | WBls:0000680 |
