HIGHLIGHTS
- What: In this investigation chiggers were collected in the wild from two locally common rodent host species (i.e. Sigmodon hispidus and Peromyscus leucopus) in three different ecoregions of North Carolina (NC) United States to investigate the composition of their bacterial communities including potential pathogens. This approach has also shed light on the diverse ecological communities that exist within chiggers, providing a window into a more comprehensive understanding of chigger microbiomes . These differences in chigger species are likely one of the main reasons for the microbiome differences. The chiggers analyzed in the study had a vastly different . . .
