This study identifies a conserved core of tegumental proteins in three cestode species through comparative proteomics, revealing shared proteins with trematodes and functional specialization within the tegument.

The paper identifies two retrotransposons in Schistosoma mansoni and shows they are horizontally transferred to intermediate hosts and other unrelated organisms.

The paper analyzes the evolution of symbiosis in Cupriavidus genus, identifying five distinct lineages and a high conserved symbiotic island with low conservation among plasmids.

This study analyzes genome-specific duplications in flatworms, finding overrepresented functional categories and conserved expression patterns among inparalogs, supporting gene duplication's role in their evolution.

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.
