Plagiorchis elegans (Trematoda) and Incompatible Snail Hosts: Implications for Snail Life History Traits and Biocontrol of Human Schistosomiasis

We examined the effect of Plagiorchis elegans on egg production and survival on Bulinus truncatus and Helisoma trivolvis trivolvis. Both species are incompatible hosts for P. elegans. Helisoma t. trivolvis occurs sympatrically with P. elegans; B. truncatus does not. Overall, P. elegans had no effect...
