Parasites as biological tags of fish stocks: a meta-analysis of their discriminatory power.

abstract：:The radiation-attenuated schistosome vaccine induces a high level of protective immunity in rodents. In order to assess its potential relevance to man, we have tested its efficacy in the non-human primate Papio anubis. A vaccination regime consisting of 3 exposures of approximately 9000 cercariae irradiated with 30 or...
