Full-length 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing reveals dynamics of tick-adapted and environmentally derived bacteria in the microbiome of the black-legged tick, Ixodes scapularis in Nova Scotia, Canada

Saffi Sangster, Katherine A. Dunn, Emma Phelan…·John M. Archibald

The paper uses full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing to distinguish tick-adapted and environmentally derived bacteria in Ixodes scapularis ticks, showing environmental bacteria are not contaminants.
