Biomphalaria tenagophila : genetic variability within intermediate snail hosts susceptible and resistant to Schistosoma mansoni infection

Biomphalaria tenagophila : genetic variability within intermediate snail hosts susceptible and resistant to Schistosoma mansoni infection

DNA analysis by molecular techniques has significantly expanded the perspectives of the study and understanding of genetic variability in molluscs that are vectors of schistosomiasis. In the present study, the genetic variability of susceptible and resistant B. tenagophila strains to S. mansoni infe...
