Gene flow in a Yersinia pestis vector, Oropsylla hirsuta, during a plague epizootic.

Journal of vector borne diseases - 1 Sept 2011

Jones Philip H, Washburn Leigh R, Britten Hugh B

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Appreciating how Yersinia pestis, the etiological agent of plague, spreads among black - tailed prairie dog (Cynomys ludovicianus) colonies (BTPD), is vital to wildlife conservation programs in North American grasslands. A little - studied aspect of the system is the role of Y. pestis vectors, i.e. fleas, play in the spreading of plague in natural settings. We investigated the genetic...
