| molecular detection of anaplasma, bartonella, and borrelia species in ticks collected from migratory birds from hong-do island, republic of korea. | bird migration is a recurring annual and seasonal event undertaken by more than 100 species of birds in the southeast asian and northeast palearctic regions that pass through or remain for short periods from april to may and september to november at hong-do island, republic of korea (rok). a total of 212 ticks (40 haemaphysalis flava, 12 h. longicornis, 146 ixodes turdus, 13 i. nipponensis, and 1 i. ornithophila) were collected from 65/2,161 (3.0%) migratory birds consisting of 21 species that w ... | 2013 | 23428091 |
| the complete mitochondrial genome of the yellow-browed bunting, emberiza chrysophrys (passeriformes: emberizidae), and phylogenetic relationships within the genus emberiza. | mitochondrial genomes have proved to be powerful tools in resolving phylogenetic relationships. emberiza chrysophrys (least concern species: iucn 2013) is a passerine bird in the bunting family, emberizidae. the complete mitochondrial genome of e. chrysophrys was sequenced. this circular mitochondrial genome was 16,803 bp in length, with an a+t content of 52.26%, containing 13 protein-coding genes (pcgs), two rrnas, 22 trnas and a putative control region (cr). the cr of e. chrysophrys was divide ... | 2014 | 25572228 |
