This study examines immune gene expression in African snails exposed to Schistosoma mansoni and evaluates diet effects on gene expression.

This study identifies two genomic regions associated with schistosome resistance in Biomphalaria sudanica snails using a genome-wide association study.

This paper presents the first genome and transcriptome assembly of Biomphalaria sudanica s.l., identifies immune-related genes and polymorphic regions, and highlights potential pathogen recognition mechanisms in an African Schistosoma mansoni vector.
