Genetic and phenotypic analysis of Borrelia valaisiana sp.nov. (Borrelia Genomic Groups VS116 and M19) [PDF]
To clarify the taxonomic status of two recently described Borrelia genomic groups, groups VS116 and M19, three group VS116 strains and eight group M19 strains isolated from Ixodes ricinus ticks in Switzerland, The Netherlands, and the United Kingdom were

‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted

Diversity Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in natural foci of Novosibirsk region
PCR assays were used to test sample from Ixodes persulcatus, blood and tissues of small mammals, human blood after tick bi- tes, as well as isolates from adult ticks. It was demonstrated the presence of two Borrelia species: B. garinii and B.

Evolutionary Response Patterns of the Rodent TLR Genes to Climatic Factors
This study systematically investigates the associations between climatic factors and the evolutionary dynamics of Toll‐like receptor (TLR) genes across 42 rodent species. Our findings demonstrate that temperature‐related climatic variables (Annual Mean Temperature, Mean Diurnal Range, and Max Temperature of Warmest Month) may modulate the evolutionary ...

Comparative population genomics of the borrelia burgdorferi species complex reveals high degree of genetic isolation among species and underscores benefits and constraints to studying intra-specific epidemiological processes [PDF]
Lyme borreliosis, one of the most frequently contracted zoonotic diseases in the Northern Hemisphere, is caused by bacteria belonging to different genetic groups within the Borrelia burgdorferi species complex, which are transmitted by ticks among ...

In this study, we analysed data collected at 40 sites in the Northwest of Scotland (from 2018 to 2020) to quantify the relative contributions of hypothesised pathogen transmission hosts (deer and sheep) and non‐transmission hosts (birds and rodents) on the environmental abundance of ecotypes I and II of Anaplasma phagocytophilum. Our results add to our
