Whole-genome sequencing of Schistosoma mansoni reveals extensive diversity with limited selection despite mass drug administration
Schistosomiasis control strategies rely on mass drug administration (MDA) using praziquantel. Here, Berger et al. perform whole-genome sequencing of larvae from infected children across Ugandan regions with differing MDA histories. They find extensive gene flow with limited positive selection sugges...
