Diversity of lice and flea‐ and lice‐borne pathogens in free‐ranging dogs in Uzbekistan

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 216-222, March 2025.
Lice (Trichodectes canis, Linognathus africanus and Bovicola bovis) and fleas were collected from dogs across five regions of Uzbekistan and subjected to molecular analysis. Molecular screening detected Dipylidium caninum and Bartonella spp. in fleas, while Rickettsia spp. were identified in both fleas and lice.

Species Composition, Diversity, Abundance, and Phylogeny of Fleas of Small Mammals in Selected Plague‐Endemic and Nonendemic Areas of Tanzania

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The remerging nature of plague requires detailed understanding of the plague flea vectors and small mammal reservoir interactions. Therefore, this study is aimed at assessing flea vector composition, diversity, prevalence, abundance, and phylogeny in selected villages of Lushoto, Mbulu, and Morogoro Rural districts in Tanzania.

Exploring the Zoonotic Risk of Bartonella henselae: A Serological and Molecular Investigation of Veterinary Personnel and Companion Cats in South Korea

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bartonella species are known as candidates for zoonotic transmission, and cats serve as the main reservoir for Bartonella henselae, the primary causative agent of cat scratch disease (CSD). However, research on the transmission of bartonellosis to humans remains very limited.

Detection of Dirofilaria repens and Mansonella llewellyni in the United States by Wolbachia Surveillance

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
In mammals, detection of Wolbachia bacteria can be used to diagnose filarial infection, while antibiotic treatment to eliminate Wolbachia can assist in eliminating filarial infections. Because Wolbachia are necessary for survival of several filarioids and closely related to Anaplasma and Ehrlichia, we analyzed Wolbachia DNA amplification by Anaplasma ...
