Effects of Schistosoma mansoni Infection on the Survival, Fecundity, and Triacylglycerol Content of Biomphalaria glabrata Snails
Several studies have indicated that infection with larval Schistosoma mansonicaused a decline in survival and fecundity (as determined by egg production or egg laying) of the Biomphalaria glabratasnail. It should be noted that many factors, such as strain of snail and schistosome, miracidia dose, age of snail at infection, snail maintenance conditions, and other factors, will affect the results of studies on snail survival and fecundity as a function of S. mansoni larval infection.
