Metagenomic Analysis of Tick‐Borne Viruses Associated With Hyalomma asiaticum From Different Hosts in the Surrounding Areas of Urumqi, China [PDF]

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Tick‐borne viruses (TBVs) represent a serious risk to global public and animal health. Despite the remarkable species diversity of ticks documented in Urumqi and its adjacent regions of China, scientific investigations into TBVs in this ecologically significant area have been strikingly scarce.

Revealing the Diversity of the Mycobiome in Different Phases of Ticks: ITS Gene‐Based Analysis [PDF]

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Ticks are obligate ectoparasites and vectors of a variety of pathogens in humans and animals. Certain tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) have been identified as the cause of zoonoses, posing potentially significant threats to the human health and livestock industries. Fungi are one of the major TBPs that can affect ticks and cause disease in humans.
