Abstract excerpt
Lymnaeid snails are some of the most widespread snails and are the first intermediate host of trematode parasites that affect human and livestock health. A full understanding of the genetic relationship of hosts and parasites is of paramount importance for effective parasite management. The present study assessed the prevalence of trematode larvae in lymnaeid snails and examined the genetic diversity of these...
