Chromosome-level genome assembly reveals female-biased genes for sex determination and differentiation in the human blood fluke Schistosoma japonicum

2021-11-07

Abstract excerpt

Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease of humans caused by blood flukes of the genus Schistosoma – the only dioecious parasitic flatworms. Although aspects of sex determination, differentiation and reproduction have been studied in some Schistosoma species, almost nothing is understood for Schistosoma japonicum - the causative agent of schistosomiasis japonica. This relates mainly to a lack of high-qualit...
