Reduced variation among northern deer tick populations at an autosomal microsatellite locus.

Journal of vector ecology : journal of the Society for Vector Ecology - 1 Dec 2004

Rosenthal Benjamin M, Spielman Andrew

Abstract excerpt

To determine whether genes flow freely between populations of the Ixodes ricinus-like ticks of eastern North America, and to determine whether the abundant northerly populations of these vectors of Lyme disease and other zoonotic infections may have arisen recently from a small cohort of ancestral founders, we characterized the nuclear IR27 microsatellite alleles in ticks sampled from the geographic extremes of...
