Saliva from nymph and adult females of Haemaphysalis longicornis: a proteomic study [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Haemaphysalis longicornis is a major vector of Theileria spp., Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Babesia spp. and Coxiella burnetti in East Asian countries. All life stages of ixodid ticks have a destructive pool-feeding style in which they create a

Autophagy-related genes from a tick,Haemaphysalis longicornis [PDF]
Autophagy, 2008 Ticks are gorging-fasting organisms;(1) their life cycle is characterized by alternate off-host (starvation) and on-host (meal) conditions. Their generation time is estimated in several years and many ticks spend more than 95% of their life off the host. They seem to have a unique strategy to endure the off-host state for a long period.

Exploring the mialome of ticks: An annotated catalogue of midgut transcripts from the hard tick, Dermacentor variabilis (Acari: Ixodidae) [PDF]
, 2008 Background Ticks are obligate blood feeders. The midgut is the first major region of the body where blood and microbes ingested with the blood meal come in contact with the tick's internal tissues.
