Abstract excerpt
Genetic markers for detecting hybridization and measuring population genetic parameters must be informative and cost-effective. Most population genetic studies within the Schistosoma haematobium species group rely on either a two-marker system consisting of the mitochondrial cytochsniromeoxidase 1 (cox1) and the nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) markers or, at the other extreme, millions of single...
