Transmission of Schistosoma japonicum in marshland and hilly regions of China: parasite population genetic and sibship structure.
The transmission dynamics of Schistosoma japonicum remain poorly understood, as over forty species of mammals are suspected of serving as reservoir hosts. However, knowledge of the population genetic structure and of the full-sibship structuring of parasites at two larval stages will be useful in de...
