First molecular evidence of Wolbachia occurrence in Amblyomma sculptum (Acari: Ixodidae).

Veterinary Parasitology, 2023
As the main vector for the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii in Brazil, the tick Amblyomma sculptum is a parasite of great public health importance in this country. Wolbachia is an endosymbiont bacterium highly widespread among invertebrates and because of

Relative transcription of autophagy-related genes in Amblyomma sculptum and Rhipicephalus microplus ticks

open access: yesExperimental and Applied Acarology, 2017
Ticks endure stressful off-host periods and perform as vectors of a diversity of infectious agents, thus engaging pathways that expectedly demand for autophagy.

A silicon-membrane based artificial feeding system for Amblyomma sculptum nymphs

Experimental and Applied Acarology
The aim of the study was to establish an artificial feeding system (AFS), based on silicon membranes, for Amblyomma sculptum nymphs and compare it to classical feeding systems using laboratory animals. Three cohorts of 60 nymphs were fed on a rabbit, calf, and with the newly established AFS using prewarmed (38 °C) defibrinated bovine blood.

Spotted fever group Rickettsia and Borrelia sp. cooccurrence in Amblyomma sculptum in the Midwest region of Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental and Applied Acarology, 2020
More than 70 tick species are found in Brazil, distributed over five genera and including main vectors of infectious disease agents affecting both animals and humans. The genus Amblyomma is the most relevant for public health in Brazil, wherein Amblyomma

Repellent activity of the non-host semiochemical (E)-2-octenal against Amblyomma sculptum and Amblyomma dubitatum ticks under field conditions

Experimental and Applied Acarology
Amblyomma ticks pose a significant public health threat due to their potential to transmit pathogens associated with rickettsial diseases. (E)-2-octenal, a compound found in donkeys (Equus asinus), exhibits strong repellent properties against Amblyomma sculptum nymphs under laboratory conditions.
