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 |
