Investigation of three enzymes and their roles in the embryonic development of parthenogenetic Haemaphysalis longicornis

Abstract Background The tick Haemaphysalis longicornis exhibits two separate reproductive populations: bisexual and parthenogenetic, which have diploid and triploid karyotypes, respectively.
