Epidemiology of toxoplasmosis: role of the tick Haemaphysalis longicornis [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 ...

A pictorial key to differentiate the recently detected exotic Haemaphysalis longicornis Neumann, 1901 (Acari, Ixodidae) from native congeners in North America [PDF]

ZooKeys, 2019
Until recently, only two haemaphysaline species, Haemaphysalis chordeilis (Packard, 1869) and Haemaphysalis leporispalustris (Packard, 1869), were known to occur in the United States, and neither was considered to be of significant medical or veterinary ...

Sexual epigenetics: genome-wide analysis revealed differential DNA methylation in the vector tick Haemaphysalis longicornis [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors
Background Haemaphysalis longicornis is an important vector that transmits a variety of pathogens to humans and animals. This tick species is unique for having two separate reproductive populations: bisexual and parthenogenetic populations.

Comparative Analysis of Bisexual and Parthenogenetic Populations in Haemaphysalis Longicornis. [PDF]

Microorganisms
Haemaphysalis longicornis, a three-host tick with a wide host range, is widely distributed in different countries and regions. It stands out among ticks due to its unique feature of having both parthenogenetic and bisexual populations. Despite their morphological resemblance, the characteristics of the parthenogenetic population have been overlooked ...

Haemaphysalis longicornis subolesin controls the infection and transmission of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus [PDF]

npj Vaccines
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) caused by the SFTS virus (SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne disease with a high mortality rate. Haemaphysalis longicornis is the primary reservoir and vector of SFTSV.

Microbiome of Haemaphysalis longicornis Tick in Korea [PDF]

The Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2021
Ticks can transmit pathogenic bacteria, protozoa, and viruses to humans and animals. In this study, we investigated the microbiomes of Haemaphysalis longicornis according to sex and life stages. The Shannon index was significantly higher for nymphs than adult ticks.

Virome diversity shaped by genetic evolution and ecological landscape of Haemaphysalis longicornis [PDF]

Microbiome
Background Haemaphysalis longicornis is drawing attentions for its geographic invasion, extending population, and emerging disease threat. However, there are still substantial gaps in our knowledge of viral composition in relation to genetic diversity of
