Each sampling site is geo-referenced to the China and Kazakhstan maps based on its latitude and longitude. The Chinese provinces unsampled are shown in grey. b Numbers of the pools for meta-transcriptomic sequencing per sampling location. Colours indicate the unfed/blood-feeding status of the ticks.
