Quantitative PCR-based genome size estimation of the astigmatid mites <it>Sarcoptes scabiei, Psoroptes ovis </it>and <it>Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The lack of genomic data available for mites limits our understanding of their biology. Evolving high-throughput sequencing technologies promise to deliver rapid advances in this area, however, estimates of genome size are initially...
