Main Article

Figure 6

Phylogeographic analysis of bisexual and parthenogenetic Asian longhorned ticks, China. A) Distribution of bisexual and parthenogenetic Asian longhorned ticks in pairwise genetic distance and pairwise geographic distance. B, C) Distribution (B) and difference (C) of dispersal index between bisexual and parthenogenetic Asian longhorned ticks. Horizontal red line in the violin plot indicates the mean dispersal index, shaded blue areas indicate the kernel density estimation, and error bars indicate the maximum (top line) and minimum (bottom line) values.
