Vertebrate Natural History Notes from Arkansas, 2017 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Because meaningful observations of natural history are not always part of larger studies, important pieces of information often are unreported. Small details, however, can fills gaps in understanding and also lead to interesting questions about ...

Role of white-tailed deer in geographic spread of the black-legged tick Ixodes scapularis : Analysis of a spatially nonlocal model.

open access: yesMathematical biosciences and engineering : MBE, 2018
yme disease is transmitted via blacklegged ticks, the spatial spread of which is believed to be primarily via transport on white-tailed deer. In this paper, we develop a mathematical model to describe the spatial spread of blacklegged ticks due to deer ...

A blood safety perspective on emerging arboviral infections in the United Kingdom

open access: yesTransfusion Medicine, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 10-19, February 2026.
Abstract A core focus of the blood services is to maintain the blood supply whilst simultaneously being vigilant for potential threats to blood safety. At present, West Nile virus (WNV), Usutu virus (USUV), Dengue virus (DENV) and Tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) are considered primary arboviral threats to blood safety in the UK and Northern Europe.

Metagenomic-based Surveillance of Pacific Coast tick Dermacentor occidentalis Identifies Two Novel Bunyaviruses and an Emerging Human Ricksettsial Pathogen. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An increasing number of emerging tick-borne diseases has been reported in the United States since the 1970s. Using metagenomic next generation sequencing, we detected nucleic acid sequences from 2 novel viruses in the family Bunyaviridae and an emerging ...

Serological evidence of tick-borne encephalitis virus infection in moose and deer in Finland: sentinels for virus circulation

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2016
The incidence of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) in humans has increased in Finland, and the disease has emerged in new foci. These foci have been investigated to determine the circulating virus subtype, the tick host species and the ecological parameters,

Dual Disruption of the Immune Cytokine Spätzle Facilitates Fungal Infection of Diverse Insect Hosts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.
The Toll pathway is essential for insect defense against fungal pathogens. This works reports that fungal parasites employ two divergent virulent effectors to target the Toll receptor ligand Spätzle: a metalloprotease degrading it and a hairpin‐like effector hijacking it to block signal transduction. This dual strategy enables the fungus to kill a wide

Cases of Lyme Disease Appear to Follow Periodic Cycles Linked to Geography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We are studying the spread of Lyme disease through Wisconsin. It is important because the number of people diagnosed with Lyme Disease in the US is around 300,000, annually (CDC 2017). The CDC has collected data of reported Lyme Disease

Predictive Modelling of Tick Distribution: A Machine Learning Approach to Ixodes ricinus Abundance

open access: yesConcurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The resurgence of tick‐borne diseases necessitates predictive frameworks that integrate both high accuracy and ecological relevance. This study develops a comprehensive machine learning pipeline to forecast the occurrence of Ixodes ricinus, a principal tick vector in Europe, leveraging high‐dimensional climatic, environmental, and land‐use ...
