Microbiome variation between male and female Hyalomma dromedarii ticks from camels in the UAE

Abstract Hyalomma dromedarii, a predominant camel tick species in the Arabian Peninsula, plays a significant role in pathogen transmission, yet its sex-specific microbiome composition remains poorly understood. This study analyzed the bacterial communities of male and female H. dromedarii ticks coll...
