The abundance of snail hosts mediates the effects of antagonist interactions between trematodes on the transmission of human schistosomes

Infectious Diseases of Poverty
Background Combating infectious diseases and halting biodiversity loss are intertwined challenges crucial to ensure global health. Biodiversity can constrain the spread of vector-borne pathogens circulation, necessitating a deeper understanding of ...
