Genetic diversity and population structuring of Schistosoma mansoni in a Brazilian village.

International journal for parasitology - 1 Mar 2008

Thiele E A, Sorensen R E, Gazzinelli A, Minchella D J

Abstract excerpt

The digenean trematode Schistosoma mansoni is responsible for chronic schistosomiasis worldwide, and in Brazil alone an estimated 35 million people are at risk. To evaluate epidemiological patterns among human definitive hosts, we assessed genetic diversity and population subdivision of S. mansoni infrapopulations in human hosts from the highly endemic village of Virgem das Graças in the state of Minas Gerais,...
