2.5 ROLE OF COPULATION IN SALIVARY GLAND DEGENERATION (from
Harris & Kaufman 1984) In most ixodid ticks, copulation (which usually occurs on
the host) must take place before the female will engorge to repletion. Hence,
mating ...

No mention is made of a possible earlier role in oocyte development, but this may
not have been examined. It is also possible that prostaglandins might play a
regulatory role in the egg laying of ticks as it does in several insect species (
