Genetic structuring and estimation of reproductive adults in Onchocerca volvulus: A genome-wide analysis across hosts and regions.

Genomic analysis of parasites can deepen our understanding of their transmission, population structure, and important biological characteristics. Onchocerciasis (river blindness), caused by the parasitic nematode Onchocerca volvulus, involves adult worms residing in subcutaneous nodules that produce...
