ABSTRACT
Understanding the genetic underpinnings of schistosome host preferences is critical. Luo et al. recently identified genes associated with intermediate and definitive host-switching based on a new chromosome-level genome for Schistosoma japonicum, population genetic comparisons, and follow-up experiments. This represents a guide to fully map-selected schistosome genes using population genetics.
