Comparative population genetic structure of two ixodid tick species ( <i>Ixodes ovatus</i> and <i>Haemaphysalis flava</i> ) in Niigata Prefecture, Japan
2019-12-03
Abstract excerpt
Ixodid tick species such as Ixodes ovatus and Haemaphysalis flava are essential vectors of tick-borne diseases in Japan. In this study, we investigated the population genetic structures and gene flow of I. ovatus and H. flava as affected by the tick host mobility. We hypothesized that I. ovatus and H. flava may have differences in their genetic structure due to the low mobility of small rodent hosts of I. o...
