Prevalence and Identification of Livestock Tick by Sex Ratio and Host in Tehran Province. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
This study identified tick species infesting livestock and poultry in Tehran Province, revealing a female‐biased sex ratio and sheep as the most infested hosts. Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato was the dominant species. These findings underscore the need for host‐targeted tick control to mitigate disease transmission and economic losses.

Complete mitogenomes and phylogenetic relationships of Haemaphysalis nepalensis and Haemaphysalis yeni

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
The mitochondrial genome may include crucial data for understanding phylogenetic and molecular evolution. We sequenced the complete mitogenome of Haemaphysalis nepalensis and Haemaphysalis yeni for the first time. H. nepalensis and H. yeni's complete mitogenomes were 14,720 and 14,895 bp in size, respectively, and both contained two ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

Emerging tick-borne infections in mainland China: an increasing public health threat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Since the beginning of the 1980s, 33 emerging tick-borne agents have been identified in mainland China, including eight species of spotted fever group rickettsiae, seven species in the family Anaplasmataceae, six genospecies in the complex Borrelia ...

Metagenomic profiling of ticks: Identification of novel rickettsial genomes and detection of tick-borne canine parvovirus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Across the world, ticks act as vectors of human and animal pathogens. Ticks rely on bacterial endosymbionts, which often share close and complex evolutionary links with tick-borne pathogens.

Proteases of haematophagous arthropod vectors are involved in blood-feeding, yolk formation and immunity : a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ticks, triatomines, mosquitoes and sand flies comprise a large number of haematophagous arthropods considered vectors of human infectious diseases. While consuming blood to obtain the nutrients necessary to carry on life functions, these insects can ...

Genetic characterization of Haemaphysalis (Rhipistoma) indica and Haemaphysalis (Segalia) montgomeryi ticks (Ixodoidea: Ixodidae)

open access: yesTicks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2023
Haemaphysalis species are medically important hard ticks (Ixodidae) that parasitize nearly all domestic as well as wild hosts, mostly in the Oriental region. Genetic diversity of Haemaphysalis ticks in South Asia has gained little attention, despite its economic, medical, and veterinary importance.

Detection of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Babesia aktasi in a wild bezoar goat (Capra aegagrus): Overlap with domestic goat strains

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 190-197, March 2026.
This study provides the first molecular detection of tick‐borne pathogens in Capra aegagrus. Genetic analysis reveals similarities between Babesia aktasi and Anaplasma phagocytophilum strains in bezoar and domestic goats, indicating potential pathogen exchange.
