Project name: Rhipicephalus microplus

Description: Transcriptional profiling of salivary gland, midgut and ovary tissues isolated from Rhipicephalus microplus females at day 20 post infestation. This enabled the identification of transcripts that are tissue-specific or shared among the tissues tested.Overall design: Reference pool design: Each tissue tested was compared to a reference pool comprising ticks (immature to adult stages) sampled on day 4, 5, 7, 13, 15 and tissues collected on day 20 post infestation. Biological replicates: 2; Technical replicates: 2.

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression

Sample scope: Multiisolate

Relevance: Environmental
