Insect Science, Volume 30, Issue 6, Page 1798-1809, December 2023., 2023 We demonstrate that adult ticks (Ixodes scapularis) infected with Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacterium that causes Lyme Disease, have greater overwintering survival than uninfected ticks. Adult ticks were placed in individual microcosms and allowed to overwinter.

Metagenomic-based Surveillance of Pacific Coast tick Dermacentor occidentalis Identifies Two Novel Bunyaviruses and an Emerging Human Ricksettsial Pathogen. [PDF]
, 2017 An increasing number of emerging tick-borne diseases has been reported in the United States since the 1970s. Using metagenomic next generation sequencing, we detected nucleic acid sequences from 2 novel viruses in the family Bunyaviridae and an emerging ...

Xenotransplantation, Volume 30, Issue 5, September/October 2023., 2023 Abstract Xenotransplantation has the potential to address shortages of organs available for clinical transplantation, but concerns exist regarding potential risks posed by porcine microorganisms and parasites (MP) to the health of human recipients. In this study, a risk‐based framework was developed, and expert opinion was elicited to evaluate porcine ...

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 179-188, June 2023., 2023 Lipoptena cervi and Ixodes scapularis sampled from the same white‐tailed deer did not consistently harbour similar bacterial genera (N = 38 deer). Non‐systemic acquisition of pathogens by keds requires further study. Bartonella sp. was detected from deer ked species (Lipoptena sp., Neolipoptena ferrisi) in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Tennessee ...
