Harnessing 50 years of tick population genetics: Choosing the right molecular tool for contemporary research

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 11, Page 2159-2177, November 2025.
Population genetics reveals how ticks interact with hosts, microbiomes and environments. This review guides researchers in choosing the best tool for the job, weighing cost, resolution, reproducibility and throughput to study tick population structure. Abstract Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting

Morphological and molecular data on the bat flies, Basilia silvae (Brèthes, 1913) and Trichobius parasiticus Gervais, 1844 parasitizing Chilean bats

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 422-430, September 2025.
We determined morphological and molecularly two species of bat flies: T. parasiticus (Streblidae), and B. silvae (Nycteribiidae). We generated the first sequences for both species in the country for the cytochrome oxidase subunit I. We do recover monophyletic groups for both species, and we discussed the tree topology.

Genetic diversity of viruses of Chenuda virus species (Orbivirus, Reoviridae) circulating in Central Asia

Вопросы вирусологии, 2017
Chenuda virus (CNUV) (Orbivirus, Reoviridae) is the only known orbivirus associated with argas (Argasidae) ticks. Scientific study of this group is necessary for understanding of Orbivirus genus evolution patterns.

Evolutionary Convergence of Nutritional Symbionts in Ticks

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
Confocal imaging of nutritional symbionts in the ovaries of ticks using fluorescence in situ hybridisation. ABSTRACT Symbiosis with bacteria is essential for the survival of animals with an obligate blood‐feeding lifestyle. In ticks, two distinct bacterial lineages, Coxiella‐like and Francisella‐like endosymbionts, have independently evolved into ...
