Novel symbionts and potential human pathogens excavated from argasid tick microbiomes that are shaped by dual or single symbiosis
1 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
Research on vector-associated microbiomes has been expanding due to increasing emergence of vector-borne pathogens and awareness of the importance of symbionts in the vector physiology. However, little is known about microbiomes of argasid (or soft-bodied) ticks due to limited access to specimens. We collected four argasid species (Argas japonicus, Carios vespertilionis, Ornithodoros capensis, and Ornithodoros...
