Ticks are one of the most significant vectors of human and animal pathogens.
More...Ticks are one of the most significant vectors of human and animal pathogens.
Ixodes scapularis (the black-legged tick) transmits Lyme disease, human granulocytic anaplasmosis, babesiosis, and other pathogens to humans and other species.
Ixodes scapularis is estimated to have diverged from other Arthropods such as
Drosophila melanogaster over 750 million years ago. Consequently, genome sequencing and other genomic studies are anticipated to be highly informative for the analysis and control of tick-borne diseases.
