Paralog analyses reveal gene duplication events and genes under positive selection in Ixodes scapularis and other ixodid ticks

BACKGROUND: Hard ticks (family Ixodidae) are obligatory hematophagous ectoparasites of worldwide medical and veterinary importance. The haploid genomes of multiple species of ixodid ticks exceed 1 Gbp, prompting questions regarding gene, segmental and whole genome duplication in this phyletic group....
