A model to explain the origin of a parasite sex-specific population structure.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Nov 2004

Boissier J, Jarkovsky J, Morand S, Moné H

Abstract excerpt

A discrete time model was built to understand the origin of the sex-specific population structure of the human blood fluke, Schistosoma mansoni. We have estimated both male/female individual ratio and male/female genotype ratio of this parasite taking into account all the experimental published values on differential male and female life-history traits all along the life cycle. We considered in our model male and...
