The Genome of the American Dog Tick ( <i>Dermacentor variabilis</i> )

2025-03-14

Abstract excerpt

The American dog tick ( Dermacentor variabilis ) is a vector of zoonotic pathogens in North America that poses emerging threats to public health. Despite its medical importance, genomic resources for D. variabilis remain scarce. Leveraging long-read nanopore sequencing, we generated a high-quality genome assembly for D. variabilis with a final size of 2.15 Gb, an N50 of 445 kb, and a BUSCO completeness score of...
