Description: We aimed to characterize the gut transcriptome composition at early stage of feeding (day 3) and late stage of feeding (day 8) of Ixodes ricinus adult females. To address specific blood-feeding adaptations, such as hemoglobin digestion and heme oxidant damage protection, we have characterized gut transcriptomes of blood- and serum-fed ticks. To decrease the sequence diversity of retrieved contigs, we have raised a genetically related cohort of adult I. ricinus ticks (first generation siblings).
