The Ixodes scapularis Genome Project (IGP), the first to sequence a tick genome, will provide an unparalleled resource for studying tick biology and tick-host-pathogen relationships, and identifying novel targets for tick and tick-borne disease control. The IGP will be the first genomic analysis of a member of the subphylum Chelicerata and will accelerate the pace of tick research. The challenge for scientists is to translate IGP data into public health benefits.
肩突硬蜱基因组计划（IGP）是首个对蜱虫基因组进行测序的项目，它将为研究蜱虫生物学、蜱虫-宿主-病原体关系以及确定蜱虫和蜱传疾病控制的新靶点提供无与伦比的资源。IGP将是对螯肢亚门成员的首次基因组分析，并将加快蜱虫研究的步伐。科学家面临的挑战是将IGP数据转化为公共卫生效益。
