Genetic variation between Biomphalaria alexandrina snails susceptible and resistant to Schistosoma mansoni infection. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2013 Much effort has been made to control schistosomiasis infection in Egypt. However, enduring effects from such strategies have not yet been achieved. In this study, we sought to determine the genetic variability related to the interaction between Biomphalaria alexandrina snails and Schistosoma mansoni.

CHARACTERIZATION OF THE HEMOCYTES OF SUSCEPTIBLE AND RESISTANT BIOMPHALARIA ALEXANDRINA SNAIL [PDF]
Journal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2016 The internal defense system consists of soluble components of hemolymph and circulating cells known as hemocytes. The circulating hemocytes play a central role in innate immunity. This work aimed to study the hemocytes of both susceptible and resistant B. alexandrina snails exposed to S. mansoni infection using light and electron microscopes.

Thirty years of slug control using the parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita and beyond
Pest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 10, Page 3408-3424, October 2023., 2023 The nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita is a parasite of slugs and snails and has been formulated into a biological control agent for use across northern Europe since 1994. Here, we review all research on P. hermaphrodita that has been carried out over the last 30 years and suggest future priorities.
