New paper on ticks thermoregulation
Our paper with Claudio lazzari, Marcos Pereira, Aurélie Fauquet and Ricardo Araujo is out in Journal of Insect Physiology: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S002219102100007X Abstract: Feeding on the blood of warm-blooded vertebrates is associated to thermal stress in haematophagous arthropods. It has been demonstrated that blood-sucking insects protect their physiological integrity either by synthesising heat-shock proteins or by means of thermoregulatory
