This study shows that Schistosoma mansoni infection increases insertion sequence activity in the gut microbiome of mice, suggesting enhanced microbial genome plasticity.

A cytochrome P450 humanised mouse model is used to study Schistosoma mansoni development, schistosomiasis, drug metabolism and drug efficacy.

The paper analyzes genome rearrangements in six rodent genomes and finds no strong correlation between breakpoint regions and previously proposed genomic features, suggesting alternative explanations for karyotypic evolution.

The paper presents a comparative genomic analysis of six Glossina species, identifying genetic features related to their unique biology and vectorial capacity.
