Contrasting Genomic Variability between Clones from Field Isolates and Laboratory Populations of Schistosoma mansoni

Contrasting Genomic Variability between Clones from Field Isolates and Laboratory Populations of Schistosoma mansoni

The extent of genomic variability of clones of Schistosoma mansoni obtained from field isolates was compared with that of strains that have been laboratory maintained. Analysis was undertaken using randomly amplified polymorphic dNAs (RAPDs) generated with three primers. Phenograms showing the simil...
