Effects of residential acaricide treatments on patterns of pathogen coinfection in blacklegged ticks

Parasitology
AbstractMedically important ixodid ticks often carry multiple pathogens, with individual ticks frequently coinfected and capable of transmitting multiple infections to hosts, including humans. Acquisition of multiple zoonotic pathogens by immature blacklegged ticks (Ixodes scapularis) is facilitated when they feed on small mammals, which are the most ...
