Cuticular hydrocarbon composition and phenotypic variability in sympatric populations of Ixodes ricinus ticks from Poland.

Experimental & applied acarology - 1 May 1994

Estrada-Peña A, Castellá J, Siuda K

Abstract excerpt

Gas chromatography of cuticular hydrocarbons was used to assess genetic similarity and heterozygosity between 18 sympatric populations of adult Ixodes ricinus ticks collected from Poland. Sixteen n-alkanes, 45 monomethylalkanes, and 36 dimethylalkanes were identified. Forty-one compounds were detected in 90% of the specimens and nine hydrocarbons were present in all the specimens studied. Visual inspection of...
