Efficiency of acquisition and transstadial maintenance of Anaplasma phagocytophilum by Haemaphysalis longicornis and Ixodes scapularis

	Prevalence of infection: pos/tested (% ± 95% conf. interval)
	Engorged nymphs	Molted adults	Engorged adults
I. scapularis	34/45 (75.6 ± 12.5)^a	15/40 (37.5 ± 15.0)^c	38/41 (92.7 ± 8.0)^e
H. longicornis	26/54 (48.1 ± 13.3)^b	2/59 (3.4 ± 4.6)^d	1/55 (1.8 ± 3.2)^f

P_chi-square^a/b = 0.005; P_chi-square^c/d < 0.0001; P_chi-square^e/f ≪ 0.0001.

P_chi-square^a/c = 0.0002; P_chi-square^c/e ≪ 0.0001; P_chi-square^b/d ≪ 0.0001; P_chi-square^df = 0.6.
