Genome of the ramshorn snail Biomphalaria straminea—an obligate intermediate host of schistosomiasis
BACKGROUND: Schistosomiasis, or bilharzia, is a parasitic disease caused by trematode flatworms of the genus Schistosoma. Infection by Schistosoma mansoni in humans results when cercariae emerge into water from freshwater snails in the genus Biomphalaria and seek out and penetrate human skin. The sn...
