Genotypic‐specific heat shock response of vector susceptibility to Schistosoma mansoni

Genotypic‐specific heat shock response of vector susceptibility to Schistosoma mansoni

Abstract Living organisms are vulnerable to thermal stress, which causes a diversity of physiological outcomes. Previous work has shown that the snail vectors (Biomphalaria glabrata) of an important human pathogen, Schistosoma mansoni, revert from resistant to susceptible after short exposure to a h...
