Integrated Metagenomic and Metatranscriptomic Analysis Reveals Microbiome Differences Between Bisexual and Parthenogenetic Populations of Haemaphysalis longicornis

The tick Haemaphysalis longicornis is an important vector of human and animal pathogens in East Asia that comprises both bisexual (Bis) and parthenogenetic (Par) populations. While previous studies have documented differences between these reproductive groups in genome ploidy, host transcription, and vector capacity, i...
