Mitogenomic insights into Sarcoptes scabiei in American black bears (Ursus americanus): COI utility for regional surveillance and mite genetic structure

2026-08-13

Abstract excerpt

Sarcoptic mange is a skin disease caused by the parasitic mite Sarcoptes scabiei that affects humans and over 150 species of domestic animals and wildlife worldwide. For the American black bear ( Ursus americanus ), sarcoptic mange is considered a significant emerging disease and case numbers have increased dramatically over the past four decades. While molecular techniques, such as DNA sequencing, are commonly us...
