Molecular epidemiology of Brazilian Biomphalaria: a review of the identification of species and the detection of infected snails.

Acta tropica - 1 Jul 2009

Caldeira Roberta L, Jannotti-Passos Liana K, Carvalho Omar S

Abstract excerpt

The three vector species of Schistosoma mansoni in Brazil, Biomphalaria glabrata, B. tenagophila and B. straminea show different susceptibility levels to the trematode besides a wide geographical distribution. The identification of such molluscs is important to further understand the disease epidemiology. Considering the fact that morphological identification may become difficult or even impossible under...
