Article Synopsis
- Soft ticks from the Ornithodoros genus are important for spreading the African swine fever virus and Borrelia species, highlighting the need for genetic markers as ASF spreads globally.*
-
- Researchers designed 151 microsatellite markers based on the genomes of Ornithodoros moubata and O. porcinus, eventually narrowing it down to 24 markers tested on O. phacochoerus and four other species.*
-
- The finalized 19 robust microsatellite markers provide a new genetic tool to study the population structure and movement of O. phacochoerus in areas affected by ASF.*
