Genetic diversity of a population of Schistosoma haematobium derived from schoolchildren in east central Zimbabwe.

The Journal of parasitology - 1 Aug 2001

Brouwer K C, Ndhlovu P, Munatsi A, Shiff C J

Abstract excerpt

To characterize the extent of genetic diversity of Schistosoma haematobium within and among its definitive host (intra- and interhost parasite diversity), 133 individual isolates from 25 infected schoolchildren were compared using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA markers. With 4 primers, 53 unambiguous loci were identified, and of these, 22 were polymorphic. Mean heterozygosity in the population was 0.116 +/-...
