Diversity of Ticks in the Caribbean Region and Detection of Their Pathogens Using BioMark Technology
Introduction Ticks and the pathogens they transmit are widespread in Caribbean animal populations. There is; however, limited information on the diversity of ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TTBPs) in the region. This study aims to identify TTBPs across multiple Caribbean countries using a high‐throughput real‐time microfluidic PCR system.

Co-infections with multiple genotypes of Anaplasma marginale in cattle indicate pathogen diversity
Background Only a few studies have examined the presence of Anaplasma marginale and Anaplasma centrale in South Africa, and no studies have comprehensively examined these species across the whole country. To undertake this country-wide study we adapted a

A Suite of Pathogens Detected in Ticks Sampled From Wildlife Hosts in Central Kenya
ABSTRACT Opportunistic sampling of ticks from animals during veterinary treatment offers important insights about wildlife exposure to pathogens. Here, we report pathogens and other tick‐borne organisms detected in ticks sampled from 10 animal species in and near Laikipia County, Kenya, in 2014–2016.

Phenology and habitat associations of the invasive Asian longhorned tick from Ohio, USA
Asian longhorned tick (ALT) nymphs emerged in June, followed by adults, and concluded with larvae in fall. Potential differences in phenology were identified between Ohio and Eastern Coast US states. ALTs were detected in all habitat types including grassland, forest and edge, but not on wildlife hosts, including small‐ and medium‐sized mammals and ...

In grazing Korean indigenous cattle, haemolytic anaemia caused by Theileria orientalis and Anaplasma phagocytophilum has been observed. Reticulocytosis, a marker of regeneration, was quantitatively expressed with an increase in indirect bilirubin and a decrease in haptoglobin. In addition, indirect bilirubin, L‐lactate and reticulocytes were correlated
