It was not only possible to generate mother sporocysts from miracidia in vitro, but also to obtain adult worms from cercariae through in vitro cultivation. |
Effects of certain environmental factors on emergence of cercariae of Austrobilharzia variglandis. |
Within this intermediate host, the parasite passes through a series of further stages known as sporocysts, rediae, and cercariae. |
The different geotactic behaviour of the two species of cercariae brings them into the ecological range of their different second intermediate hosts. |
Only the tadpoles that were exposed to cercariae developed deformities. |
Total RNA was isolated separately from miracidia, sporocysts, cercariae, schistosomulum, and male and female adult worms. |
