Boophilus microplus tick burdens on grazing cattle in Colombia
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1984This study was conducted at Carimagua Research Centre in a well-drained savanna area in the eastern plains of Colombia. The objectives were to note the effect of ecological factors on tick burdens, principally the effect of the environment given by four grasses on the seasonal variations of tick populations. Adult female tick counts were carried out on

Glucose metabolism in the cattle tick, Boophilus microplus
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1972Abstract The contributions of the glucose catabolic pathways in different stages of the life cycle of the cattle tick, Boophilus microplus , were estimated on the basis of rates of 14 CO 2 production from specifically labelled glucose. In free-living larvae the pentose cycle accounted for 20 per cent of the total glucose catabolism.

Efficacy of Azadirachta indica extracts against Boophilus microplus
Parasitology Research, 2008Extracts were prepared from leaf, bark, and seed of Azadirachta indica, leaf and seed of Prunus persica, bark of Mangifera indica, and leaf of Psidium guajava and were evaluated against Boophilus microplus. Of the eight extracts screened, the extracts prepared from the A.

Ticks with Special Emphasis on Boophilus Microplus
1974Man, with his domestic animals, has intruded into many complex host-parasite relationships involving ticks. Indeed, with the exception of the form of Ornithodorus porcinus which feeds almost exclusively on man in the Kenya Highlands (Walton 1962), all of man’s and many of his domestic animals’ contacts with ticks are casual in that wildlife are the ...

Boophilus annulatus and B. microplus: Laboratory Tests of Insecticides13
Journal of Economic Entomology, 1973Engorged females of the cattle tick, Boophilus annulatus (Say), and the southern cattle tick, B. microplus (Canestrini), were dipped in emulsions, suspensions, or solutions of 30 insecticides. The effect on estimated reproduction (ER. ER = g eggs/g × estimated % hatch × 20,000) was determined, and the percentage reductions in ER afforded by several ...

Adenosine triphosphatases in the cattle tick Boophilus microplus
Insect Biochemistry, 1987Abstract The nature and distribution of the magnesium dependent ATPases of Boophilus microplus have been studied in partially engorged, adult female ticks. The tissues examined, namely salivary glands, ovaries and gut, all contain at least three enzymes: an ouabain sensitive, Na,K-ATPase; an enzyme inhibited by azide and dicyclohexyl carbodiimide ...

Sporogony and experimental transmission of Babesia equi by Boophilus microplus
Parasitology Research, 1998The development of Babesia equi in salivary glands of adult female Boophilus microplus was observed under a light microscope using semithin sections stained with toluidine blue. Engorged nymphs were obtained from splenectomized foals experimentally infected with B. equi.

Tick Resistant Cattle for the Control of Boophilus Microplus
1973The one-host cattle tick Boophilus mtcroplus has constituted a threat to Australia’s cattle industry ever since it was introduced almost a century ago from Java (Seddon,1968). Its origin is uncertain, but undoubtedly the tick and Zebu(Bos indicus) cattle have been associated for many thousands of years in Asia and a state of equilibrium between host ...
