Anaplasma marginale infection levels and rates following gene silencing.

aSG = Salivary glands, MG = midguts.bSD = Standard deviation.c8 ticks from the salivary gland control group were also analyzed in the midgut group.dThese values were not considered when calculating the mean rate since these midguts where dissected from the same ticks that were used for dissecting salivary glands for TC22382 siRNA_A and TC22382 siRNA_B analysis.
