2018-02-01
Abstract excerpt
The tick Haemaphysalis flava is one of the most significant blood‐feeding arthropod parasites and is a vector for numerous human and animal pathogens. However, a comprehensive investigation of the microbial communities found in the saliva of this tick species is lacking.
