Abstract excerpt
The genetic differentiation among several laboratory-maintained pedigree snail lines of Biomphalaria glabrata (with different susceptibility phenotypes to Schistosoma mansoni infection) was assessed with the random amplified polymorphic DNA method. Out of the 20 primers tested, 2 (OPA-01 and OPA-06) gave reproducible markers with either individual or bulked DNA samples from resistant (BS-90, 10-R2, LAC-line) and...
