Table 3. Schistosoma mansoni genetic diversity estimated from microsatellite markers.

Genetic diversity was estimated per village, per region and per year for samples typed at nine (DMS1–542 samples in total) or six (DMS2–758 samples in total) microsatellites markers (see Table 1 for details on data collection).
