| bacterial taxa associated with the hematophagous mite dermanyssus gallinae detected by 16s rrna pcr amplification and ttge fingerprinting. | dermanyssus gallinae (arthropoda, mesostigmata) is suspected to be involved in the transmission of a wide variety of pathogens, but nothing is known about its associated non-pathogenic bacterial community. to address this question, we examined the composition of bacterial communities in d. gallinae collected from standard poultry farms in brittany, france. genetic fingerprints of bacterial communities were generated by temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (ttge) separation of indivi ... | 2009 | 19027065 |
| diversity, geographic distribution, and habitat-specific variations of microbiota in natural populations of the chicken mite, dermanyssus gallinae. | dermanyssus gallinae is considered to be the most economically significant ectoparasite to affect egg-laying poultry in europe. this mite can also act as a vector for a number of pathogens. the array of bacteria associated with d. gallinae mites could provide insight into the biology and population dynamics of arthropods, but at the present time little information is available. to understand the intra- and interpopulation diversity of its associated microbiota, we analyzed the whole internal bac ... | 2011 | 21845937 |
