[HTML][HTML] The role of saliva in tick feeding
When attempting to feed on their hosts, ticks face the problem of host hemostasis (the
vertebrate mechanisms that prevent blood loss), inflammation (that can produce itching or …

Genomic insights into the Ixodes scapularis tick vector of Lyme disease
Ticks transmit more pathogens to humans and animals than any other arthropod. We
describe the 2.1 Gbp nuclear genome of the tick, Ixodes scapularis (Say), which vectors …
