  1. JMTV Jingmen tick virus, qRT-PCR quantitative reverse transcription-PCR
  2. aJMTV RNA was detected in 9 A. testudinarium ticks and in 2 H. longicornis ticks; the partial S1 segment encoding nonstructural protein 1 (NSP1) of JMTV was obtained from only 3 A. testudinarium ticks (no H. longicornis) .
  3. bSlash (∕) indicates that no experimental testing was carried out
