Haemaphysalis flava is the vector of several pathogens and has medical and veterinary importance. Transcriptome information of the ovary of H. flava is unavailable and limits understanding of its molecular basis of reproduction. We studied the ovary transcriptome of partially engorged and fully engorged H. flava using high-throughput RNA sequencing technology. A total of 53,025,360 and 57,942,890 clean reads were obtained with 7.95 GB and 8.69 GB clean bases in partially engorged ticks (PETs) and fully engorged ticks (FETs), respectively. The clean reads were assembled into 138,711 unigenes. A...
