A mechanistic model explains variation in larval tick questing phenology along an elevation gradient
Many tick-borne pathogens are maintained in enzootic cycles passing from nymphs of one tick cohort to larvae of the next via vertebrate hosts. As such, the phenology of larval and nymphal host-seeking, questing, partially determines pathogen persistence. Across the range of the blacklegged tick (Ixo...
