Molluscicidal activity and physiological toxicity of quaternary benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids (QBAs) from Macleaya cordata fruits on Oncomelania hupensis.
Schistosomiasis is a serious worldwide parasitic disease. One of the best ways to control schistosomiasis is to control the population of Oncomelania hupensis snails. We sought to identify a high-efficiency biogenic molluscicide against Oncomelania with low toxicity, to avoid chemical molluscicide c...
