Hybridization increases genetic diversity in Schistosoma haematobium populations infecting humans in Cameroon
26 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hybrids between Schistosoma haematobium (Sh) and S. bovis (Sb) have been found in several African countries as well as in Europe. Since the consequences of this hybridization are still unknown, this study aims to verify the presence of such hybrids in Cameroonian humans, to describe the structure of S. haematobium populations on a large geographic scale, and to examine the impact of these hybrids on...
