Microbiome of D. andersoni ticks in field-caught populations. The bacterial composition of the midgut (MG) and salivary glands (SG) of adult male Burns (B) and Lake Como (LC) ticks was characterized in F1 ticks from 2012 to 2014. Taxa detected included Arsenophonus spp. (blue), FLE (red), Francisella spp. (light green), Rickettsia spp. (purple), R. bellii (orange), R. peacockii (dark green), R. rhipicephali (dark blue), Ralstonia spp. (dark purple), Ralstonia pickettii (black), Oxalobacteraceae (yellow), Burkholderiaceae (light brown), rare (dark red), and unclassified (light blue)
