<i>PTC2</i> region genotypes counteract <i>Biomphalaria glabrata</i> population differences between M-line and BS90 in resistance to infection by <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i>
2022-06-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Biomphalaria glabrata is a snail intermediate host for Schistosoma mansoni , a trematode responsible for human schistosomiasis. BS90 is one of the most well studied strains of B. glabrata owing to its high resistance to infection by most strains of S. mansoni . An F2 mapping study from 1999 identified two RAPD markers that associated with what appeared to be single-locus, dominant resistanc...
