Spatial Heterogeneity of Tick-Borne Pathogens Outpaces Genetic Structuring in Anatolian Dermacentor reticulatus Populations. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg DisUnderstanding how vector population structure influences pathogen circulation remains a major challenge in tick‐borne disease ecology, particularly in biogeographically transitional regions. Dermacentor reticulatus, a widespread Palearctic tick species and vector of multiple pathogens, provides a useful system to investigate this relationship in a ...

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2013 We analyzed rickettsial DNA of ticks from tick-borne lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA) patients. Dermacentor marginatus (9/17) and Dermacentor reticulatus (8/17) transmitted rickettsiae to a similar extent. Rickettsia raoultii was detected in more ticks than Rickettsia slovaca.

Hemelipoglycoprotein from the ornate sheep tick, Dermacentor marginatus: structural and functional characterization [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2011 Abstract Background Tick carrier proteins are able to bind, transport, and store host-blood heme, and thus they function also as antioxidants. Nevertheless, the role of carrier proteins in ticks is not fully understood.

Spotted fever group rickettsiae inDermacentor marginatusfrom wild boars in Italy
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2020 Following the increase in wild boar population recorded in urban and peri-urban areas through Europe, the present survey aimed to assess the occurrence of zoonotic tick-borne bacteria in animals and their ticks collected from southern Italy, in order to evaluate the potential risk of infection for animals and humans.
