Tick host specificity: an analysis based on host phylogeny and tick ecological features using Amblyomma triste and Amblyomma tigrinum immature stages

Here we have evaluated tick host specificity with two different methodological approaches considering Amblyomma tigrinum and Amblyomma triste immatures as targets. Firstly, the Std* index was applied, which considers host phylogenetic relationships weighted by the prevalence of the parasite; followe...
