Abstract

We have studied 13 enzyme systems encoded by 15 loci of the I. persulcatus tick populations from two suburban areas of the city of Irkutsk. We have identified a high intrapopulation heterogeneity and insignificant differences between the two populations. This indicates a high rate of gene migration.
