| | Evolution of Schistosoma mansoni |
| | Before we can fully comprehend how human schistosomes will respond to both present and future attempts at drug- or vaccine-mediated control, we need to better understand their basic biology. | | | One of the keys to understanding schistosome biology is to understand their obligatory relationships with snails. | | | Such techniques have never been applied to a comprehensive series of samples representing the entire geographic range of S. mansoni or of any other human schistosome. |

| | A genus of trematodes, Schistosoma spp., commonly known as blood-flukes and bilharzia, cause the most important human helminth infection (schistosomiasis) from a world health perspective, and are considered by the World Health Organization as second in importance only to malaria, with hundreds of millions infected worldwide. | | | Eggs are passed through urine or feces to fresh water, where larval stages can infect a new host by penetrating the skin. | | | It is also known as Manson's blood fluke or swamp fever. |
