Metatranscriptomic Analysis Uncovers RNA Virus Diversity in Ticks From the China-Russia-North Korea Border Region. [PDF]
Ticks serve as critical viral vectors, and border regions, acting as convergence zones of complex ecosystems, provide diverse habitats for ticks and their hosts, thereby underscoring the need to investigate the tick‐borne virome composition in such areas. In this study, metatranscriptomic analysis of five tick species, namely Haemaphysalis longicornis,
