Abstract excerpt
Geographical isolates of S. japonicum, and particularly isolates from China and the Philippines, were examined at the molecular level for genetic divergence. Sequences from both nuclear and mitochondrial genomes were selected as markers of evolutionary divergence and S. mekongi and S. mansoni were included in the study for comparison purposes. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and PCR-RFLP analysis...
