Striking differences in virulence, transmission and sporocyst growth dynamics between two schistosome populations
BACKGROUND: Parasite traits associated with transmission success, such as the number of infective stages released from the host, are expected to be optimized by natural selection. However, in the trematode parasite Schistosoma mansoni, a key transmission trait, i.e. the number of cercariae larvae sh...
