High SNP density in the blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis, the principal vector of Lyme disease spirochetes.

Ticks and tick-borne diseases - 1 Feb 2013

Abstract excerpt

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most widespread type of sequence variation in genomes. SNP density and distribution varies among different organisms and genes. Here, we report the first estimates of SNP distribution and density in the genome of the blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis), an important vector of the pathogens causing Lyme disease, human granulocytic anaplasmosis and human babesiosis in...
