Population genomic analyses of schistosome parasites highlight critical challenges facing end-game elimination efforts

2020-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Schistosomiasis persists in some Asian regions despite targeted end-game elimination measures. To determine the causes of this persistence, we performed reduced representation genome sequencing on Schistosoma japonicum miracidia collected across multiple years from transmission hotspots in Sichuan, China. We discovered strong geographic structure, suggesting that local rather than imported reservoirs are key sour...
