Percentage of snails infected with 1–9 genotypes of schistosome parasites from this study and previous studies (n indicates snail sample size).
<p>Kenya SM refers to <i>S. mansoni</i> and Kenya SR to <i>S. rodhaini</i> from this study.</p
Minimum evolution tree of several specimens of <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> and <i>S. rodhaini</i> based on 512 bp of mitochondrial DNA including part of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene, all of thetRNA-Cys gene, and part of the 12S ribosomal RNA gene.
<p>Uncorrected p-distance is given for scale.</p
The number of snails infected with <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> (SM), <i>Schistosoma rodhaini</i> (SR), unidentified mammalian schistosomes (US), and total schistosomes (TS) at various sites in the Lake Victoria Basin of Kenya.
<p>The total number of snails collected, prevalence of schistosome infection (P), and prevalence of confirmed <i>S. mansoni</i> (SM P) and <i>S. rodhaini</i> (SR P) infections are given for each site. Prevalence for each species was also adjusted as denoted by an asterisk to accommodate unidentified schistosomes by multiplying the prevalence of schistosomes by the percentage of identified schistosomes for each species.</p
B. sudanica Compatibility Master Data
This is the dataset used for the manuscript, titled: "Multi-strain compatability polymorphism between a parasite and its snail host, a neglected vector of schistosomiasis in Africa."
The description "csv" file contains all details of the datasheets used for the analysis.</p
Collection sites for snails of the genus <i>Biomphalaria</i> and their schistosome parasites in Western Kenya.
<p>Global Positioning System coordinates are projected in North American Datum 1983 decimal degrees.</p
Total adults recovered of 3 genotypes of <i>S. rodhaini</i> (R1-R3) and 1 genotype of <i>S. mansoni</i> (M1) that emerged from the same snail during 4 time intervals.
<p>Total adults recovered of 3 genotypes of <i>S. rodhaini</i> (R1-R3) and 1 genotype of <i>S. mansoni</i> (M1) that emerged from the same snail during 4 time intervals.</p
Population assignment graph of <i>S. mansoni</i> and <i>S. rodhaini</i> based on 7 microsatellite markers.
<p>The dot plot indicates the log-likelihood (absolute value) that each individual belongs to either species. The lower the log likelihood value, the more likely the individual belongs to that species.</p
Schistosome CAA titers
This file contains CAA titers, schistosome status, season, age and capture information for buffalo involved in this publication. Additional information is published under Dryad submission http://dx.doi.org/10.5061/dryad.q2m38
Results of the Fisher's Exact tests to determine if the proportions of genotypes of <i>S. mansoni</i> released from snails are consistent over timed replicates.
<p>P indicates the probability of significance, n indicates the number of worms sampled, R is the number of replicates tested, and G is the number of genotypes present in a snail. Mode indicates whether the proportions remained constant over replicates, followed a replacement pattern, or was variable.</p
Four replicates of circadian emergence of cercariae from a snail infected with 3 genotypes of <i>S. rodhaini</i> and 1 genotype of <i>S. mansoni</i>.
<p>Time units are hourly units beginning with 0:00–1:00 hours.</p
