The ITS2 of the genus Bulinus: novel secondary structure among freshwater snails and potential new taxonomic markers.

Acta tropica - 1 Nov 2013

Jørgensen Aslak, Stothard J R, Madsen Henry, Nalugwa Allen, Nyakaana Silvester, Rollinson David

Abstract excerpt

The freshwater snail genus Bulinus has been intensively investigated due to its role as intermediate host for trematode blood flukes that cause the debilitating disease schistosomiasis in man and livestock. Owing to taxonomic ambiguities within Bulinus, attention has often focused upon species delineation and several molecular methods have recently been used for identification and characterization purposes....
