Behavioral Manipulation of Ixodes scapularis by Ehrlichia muris eauclairensis: Implications for Tick-Borne Disease Transmission

ABSTRACT: To understand how EME influence tick behavior, we analyzed the tick nervous system; testing for the presence of EME in the synganglion, then performing proteomic studies on the synganglion during resting, and attachment/feeding phases.
