Probability of blood Midichloria DNA presence according to tick parasitism in adult and second-year individuals of target avian species. Tick-infested adult birds were significantly more likely to harbour Midichloria DNA in peripheral blood than non-infested adults and second-year birds at pairwise post-hoc tests (all P < 0.015; details not shown) (see Additional file 10: Table S8 for model details). Binomial 95% confidence limits were calculated using the ‘score method’ [69]
