Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2024.
Tick‐borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide, so knowledge of the diversity of tick viruses has potential health consequences. Through data mining and bioinformatic analyses of more than 37,800 public meta‐genomic and ‐transcriptomic data sets, we found five putative novel Alphatetra‐like viruses, four putative novel Orthomyxo‐like ...

An Integrated Approach to an Emerging Problem: Implementing a Whole Year of Camera Trap Survey in Evaluating the Impact of Wildlife on Tick Abundance

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Tick‐borne zoonoses are an emerging health issue. The expansion of ticks is mainly driven by climatic changes but also by new approaches to the management of the natural environment, increasing the abundance of vertebrate host species and thus the potential exposure to tick bites for both humans and companion animals.

Detection of Brucella in Dermacentor Ticks of Wild Boar with Brucellosis

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Brucellosis is a sanitary and economically relevant disease affecting humans, livestock, and wildlife. Ticks have been suggested as vectors, long‐term carriers, and amplifiers of Brucella. In this study, ticks from wildlife ungulate hosts living in hunting reserves of a central region of Spain were collected during a 6‐year period, pooled, and screened

Exposure to Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus in Wild Ungulates in the Basque Country, Northern Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) causes a serious human tick‐borne disease. In animals, CCHFV infections are mainly subclinical. The circulation of the virus has received little attention in areas where the main vector (Hyalomma spp.) is not considered to be present or established (e.g., the Northern Iberian Peninsula).

Spotted fever group rickettsiae inDermacentor marginatusfrom wild boars in Italy

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2020
Following the increase in wild boar population recorded in urban and peri-urban areas throughout Europe, the present survey aimed to assess the occurrence of zoonotic tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) in wild boars living in southern Italy and in their ticks for evaluating the potential risk of infection for animals and humans. From October to December 2019,
