Comparative population genetics of a parasitic nematode and its host community: the trichostrongylid Neoheligmonella granjoni and Mastomys rodents in southeastern Senegal.

Abstract excerpt

Contrasting host and parasite population genetic structures can provide information about the population ecology of each species and the potential for local adaptation. Here, we examined the population genetic structure of the nematode Neoheligmonella granjoni at a regional scale in southeastern Senegal, using 11 microsatellite markers. Using the results previously obtained for the two main rodent species of the...
