Abstract
Sixteen of 22omp-1paralogs encoding 28-kDa-range immunodominant outer membrane proteins ofEhrlichia chaffeensiswere transcribed in blood monocytes of dogs throughout a 56-day infection period. Only one paralog was transcribed byE. chaffeensisin three developmental stages ofAmblyomma americanumticks before or afterE. chaffeensistransmission to naïve dogs.Keywords
