Infected Ixodes scapularis Nymphs Maintained in Prolonged Questing under Optimal Environmental Conditions for One Year Can Transmit Borrelia burgdorferi (Borreliella genus novum) to Uninfected Hosts

In recent decades, Lyme disease has been expanding to previous nonendemic areas. We hypothesized that infected I. scapularis nymphs that retain host-seeking behavior under optimal environmental conditions are fit to fulfil their transmission role in the enzootic cycle of B. burgdorferi.
