Tick borne illness in Missouri [PDF]
, 2014 Missouri is a hotbed for tick-borne illness given its abundance of rural geography and wildlife, especially deer. The two most frequently encountered ticks in Missouri are the lone star tick, Amblyomma americanum and the American dog tick, Dermacentor ...

Present and future potential of plant-derived products to control arthropods of veterinary and medical significance [PDF]
, 2014 The use of synthetic pesticides and repellents to target pests of veterinary and medical significance is becoming increasingly problematic. One alternative approach employs the bioactive attributes of plant-derived products (PDPs). These are particularly

A secreted calreticulin protein in ixodid tick (Amblyomma americanum) saliva
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1995 A complementary DNA clone from salivary glands of feeding female Amblyomma americanum ticks has been characterized as encoding calreticulin. Calreticulin, a major endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium-binding protein, appears to be secreted in Amblyomma and Dermacentor saliva. Evidence is accummulating that calreticulin performs roles unrelated to calcium

Molecular Detection and Characterization of Ehrlichia ruminantium [PDF]
, 2002 Ehrlichia ruminantium is an obligate intracellular bacterium that can cause a disease in ruminants known as heartwater. The vertebrate host becomes infected when infected Amblyomma ticks (nymphs or adults) feed on it. When the host survives the infection

Rhipicephalus microplus serine protease inhibitor family: annotation, expression and functional characterisation assessment [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus evades the host's haemostatic system through a complex protein array secreted into tick saliva. Serine protease inhibitors (serpins) conform an important component of saliva which are represented by a large

Presence of Borrelia, Rickettsia, and Ehrlichia in Field-collected Ticks on Candlers Mountain, Virginia [PDF]
, 2016 Tick survey is an important factor in the determination of tick-borne disease in an area. A tick survey was done on Candlers Mountain in Lynchburg, Virginia, to look for the presence of Borrelia, Rickettsia, and Ehrlichia. With the help of CO2 traps, 116
