From: Sialotranscriptomics of Rhipicephalus zambeziensis reveals intricate expression profiles of secretory proteins and suggests tight temporal transcriptional regulation during blood-feeding

Comparisons of the predicted R. zambeziensis proteins to proteins of two closely related Rhipicephalus species. a Length distribution of the predicted proteins of R. zambeziensis, R. appendiculatus and R. pulchellus. The number of proteins is indicated based on a protein length sliding window of 20 amino acids (aa), showing a maximum length of 1000 aa. b Pfam domain comparison of the three Rhipicephalus species. Datasets used: 13,584 predicted proteins from the assembled R. zambeziensis transcriptome, 12,761 R. appendiculatus proteins [37] and 11,227 R. pulchellus proteins [34]. Blue represents R. zambeziensis; red, R. appendiculatus; and green, R. pulchellus
