Blacklegged Tick or Deer Tick, Ixodes scapularis Say (Arachnida: Acari: Ixodidae) [PDF]

, 2003
In the United States, the blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis Say affects the greatest number of people for three principal reasons: their geographic distribution coincides in the northeastern United States with the greatest concentration of humans ...

Tick-borne diseases in roe deer - seroprevalence, possible cut-off and effects on health [PDF]

, 2023
Understanding the interaction between roe deer and pathogens could potentially help us improve the health in both roe deer and humans. Here, I focused on broadening our basic understanding about three specific tick-borne pathogens, Anaplasma ...

A new multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis reveals different clusters for Anaplasma phagocytophilum circulating in domestic and wild ruminants

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a tick-borne intragranulocytic alpha-proteobacterium. It is the causative agent of tick-borne fever in ruminants, and of human granulocytic anaplasmosis in humans, two diseases which are becoming increasingly ...

Cervids and raccoon dogs as wildlife sentinels for the geographical distribution of tick-borne encephalitis virus and Francisella tularensis in Denmark

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Collecting and testing ticks for rare tick-borne pathogen surveillance can be labour-intensive and true absence of rare pathogens in ticks is difficult to determine. Nevertheless, knowledge of the distribution of tick-borne pathogens is relevant for risk

Tick responses to diverse chemical attractants to enhance tick surveillance methods’ efficacy

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Amblyomma maculatum Koch (Acari: Ixodidae), Ixodes scapularis Say, and Dermacentor variabilis Say are three hard-bodied ticks responsible for vectoring pathogens that cause most human tick-borne diseases in the United States of America (USA).

Density-dependent preprandial mating by deer ticks.

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2000
To determine whether the prevalence of preprandial insemination in deer ticks reflects their local abundance, we sampled adult ticks by flagging vegetation at selected sites in eastern Massachusetts in a standardized manner. Resulting female ticks were dissected to determine whether they contained endospermatophores, and the frequency of insemination ...
