On the core bacterial flora of Ixodes persulcatus (Taiga tick). [PDF]
PLoS One, 2017 Ixodes persulcatus is a predominant hard tick species that transmits a wide range of human and animal pathogens. Since bacterial flora of the tick dwelling in the wild always vary according to their hosts and the environment, it is highly desirable that species-associated microbiomes are fully determined by using next-generation sequencing and based on
