Laboratory adaptation and complete genome assembly of a Beposo, Ghana strain of the human hookworm <i>Necator americanus</i>

2026-06-11

Abstract excerpt

Laboratory models are invaluable tools for studying parasite biology and pathogenesis, especially for helminth infections. However, the complex life cycles and frequently narrow host specificity of helminths present challenges to maintaining access to critical parasite material in a laboratory setting. This is especially true of Necator americanus , the most common species of hookworm that infects humans globally...
