Population and demographic structure of Ixodes scapularis Say in the eastern United States.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Sakamoto Joyce M, Goddard Jerome, Rasgon Jason L

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The most significant vector of tick-borne pathogens in the United States is Ixodes scapularis Say (the blacklegged tick). Previous studies have identified significant genetic, behavioral and morphological differences between northern vs. southern populations of this tick. Because tick-borne pathogens are dependent on their vectors for transmission, a baseline understanding of the vector population...
