DNA sequence variation in Dermacentor hunteri and estimated phylogenies of Dermacentor spp. (Acari: Ixodidae) in the New World.

Abstract excerpt

The genus Dermacentor is represented by 12 species in the New World. We sequenced a 300-bp portion of the mitochondrial 16S ribosomal DNA gene for 28 individual ticks representing 9 of these species and analyzed their phylogenetic relationships. Maximum parsimony, distance (neighbor-joining), and...
