Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction

Ecology 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 ...

Occurrence of Dermacentor reticulatus in central-southern Poland, and potential threats to human and animal health.

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE Dermacentor reticulatus is one of the tick species of the greatest epidemiological importance in Europe. To date, the Eastern European and Western European populations of this tick species have been separated by an area located

Are you ready for the tick season? Spring dynamic of tick diversity and density in urban and suburban areas

Parasites & Vectors
Background Occurrence of tick-borne diseases (TBD) is often seasonal and associated with seasonal activity of appropriate tick vectors. As seasonal activity of ticks differs, the risk of contracting particular TBD should change between and within seasons.

Spectrum of Ixodidae Ticks Attacking Humans in Novosibirsk Province, Russian Siberia, and Their Association with Tick-Borne Bacterial Agents

Pathogens
The spectrum of ixodid ticks that bite humans in Western Siberia has significantly changed over the past two decades. In this study, we determined tick species attacking people in the vicinity of Novosibirsk and the range of bacterial agents they were ...

Repellency, prevention of attachment and acaricidal efficacy of a new combination of fipronil and permethrin against the main vector of canine babesiosis in Europe, Dermacentor reticulatus ticks

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Dermacentor reticulatus is a European hard tick of major veterinary importance because it is the vector of canine babesiosis due to Babesia canis.

Prevalence of Rickettsia spp. Infection in Ticks Collected from Shelter Dogs in Tulcea County, Romania

Pathogens
Ticks are one of the most important vectors of zoonotic pathogens in Europe, including Rickettsia spp. In Romania, several pathogenic species belonging to the Spotted Fever Group (SFG) transmitted primarily through tick bites have been identified.

Virus-like particles in Dermacentor reticulatus ticks.

Acta virologica, 1990
Virus-like particles were found in the brain and salivary glands of Dermacentor reticulatus ticks double infected with Coxiella burnetii and Rickettsiella phytoseiuli. The particles were spherical (diameter of about 70 nm) and consisted of an electron-dense inner core and a dense external coat.

Host-feeding behaviour of Dermacentor reticulatus and Dermacentor marginatus in mono-specific and inter-specific infestations

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Given the sympatric occurrence in some regions of Europe and the great epidemiological significance of D. reticulatus and D. marginatus species, we investigated the behaviour of these ticks during inter-specific and mono-specific host ...
