Location, Location, Location: Geographic source of blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis) nymphs determines behavioral outcomes in laboratory studies

2025-09-10

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><italic>Ixodes scapularis</italic> is considered a significant medical and veterinary arthropod pest, capable of transmitting several pathogens that cause disease in humans and animals. Previous work has identified two distinct populations of <italic>I. scapularis</italic> in the United States (northern and southern), characterized by differences in their genetics and behavior. This stu...
