Microbiome of Invasive Tick Species Haemaphysalis Longicornis in North Carolina, USA [PDF]

Insects
Ticks are one of the most important vectors of human and animal disease worldwide. In addition to pathogens, ticks carry a diverse microbiota of symbiotic and commensal microorganisms. In this study, we used next-generation sequencing (NGS) to survey the

Epidemiology of toxoplasmosis: role of the tick [PDF]

Infectious Diseases of Poverty, 2016
L'infection à Toxoplasma gondii est principalement causée par l'ingestion d'eau ou d'aliments contaminés par des oocystes excrétés par les chats, ou par la consommation de viande crue contenant des kystes tissulaires de T. gondii. Cependant, la transmission orale n'explique pas l'apparition fréquente de la toxoplasmose chez divers hôtes, tels que les ...

HL-IR mediates cinnamaldehyde repellency behavior in parthenogenetic Haemaphysalis longicornis. [PDF]

PLoS Negl Trop Dis
Chemical repellents against arthropods have limitations in terms of toxicity and resistance. Natural plant compounds can be utilized as alternatives for developing environmentally friendly repellents for humans and animals. A variety of plant essential oils exhibit strong repellent effects against ticks; however, the mechanisms of action against ticks ...

<i>Haemaphysalis longicornis</i> and Carvacrol as Acaricide: Efficacy and Mechanism of Action. [PDF]

Molecules
Carvacrol derived from Origanum vulgare oil was evaluated for its acaricidal efficacy and mechanism of action against Haemaphysalis longicornis, a primary vector of severe fever with a thrombocytopenia syndrome. Essential oils extracted from O. vulgare leaves cultivated in Germany, Albania, and Iran were analyzed.
