Compatibility between snails and schistosomes: insights from new genetic resources, comparative genomics, and genetic mapping
Using newly developed genetic resources, comparative genomics, and genetic mapping, this study provides novel insights into schistosome resistance in the snail Biomphalaria glabrata, an important intermediate host of Schistosoma mansoni, a causative agent of human schistosomiasis.
