Illuminating the bacterial microbiome of Australian ticks with 16S and Rickettsia-specific next-generation sequencing

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) studies show that mosquito and tick microbiomes influence the transmission of pathogens, opening new avenues for vector-borne pathogen control. Recent microbiological studies of Australian ticks highlight fundamental knowledge gaps of tick-borne agents. This investig...
