Microbial communities associated with the camel tick, Hyalomma dromedarii: 16S rRNA gene-based analysis
12 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
Hyalomma dromedarii is an important blood-feeding ectoparasite that affects the health of camels. We assessed the profile of bacterial communities associated with H. dromedarii collected from camels in the eastern part of the UAE in 2010 and 2019. A total of 100 partially engorged female ticks were taken from tick samples collected from camels (n = 100; 50/year) and subjected to DNA extraction and sequencing. The...
