Development and Characterization of Microsatellite Genetic Markers for <i>Hyalomma rufipes</i>, a Tick Vector of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus. [PDF]
This study developed and validated 14 polymorphic microsatellite markers to investigate the population genetics of Hyalomma rufipes, a tick species that transmits Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV) in East Africa. Ticks collected from livestock in northern Kenya were morphologically and genetically identified, followed by genome sequencing ...

A natural barrier: tick-repellent potential of a spruce-derived volatile blend against Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus. [PDF]
Both active and passive questing ticks, Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus, were assessed for behavioural responses to two novel plant‐derived repellent volatile organic compound blends. Both tick species were repelled by the products, and both novo blends were significantly more repellent than currently available commercial products.

An internal transcribed spacer 2 gene fragment, as a suitable phylogenetic marker in Hyalomma and Rhipicephalus (Acari: Rhipicephalinae) species [PDF]
Hyalomma and Rhipicephalus (Acari: Ixodidae: Rhipicephalinae) are the most important ectoparasites and biological vector of pathogen agents. The taxonomy of some Hyalomma and Rhipicephalus species is more debatable. The traditional taxonomy of ticks have

Hard ticks infesting domestic ruminants, species composition and infection with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus in a highland province, SW Iran [PDF]
Background: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a neglected tick-borne viral zoonotic disease. The aim was to detect CCHF virus (CCHFV) among wild ticks from Artiodactyla, Bos taurus, Ovis aries, and Capra hircus, in a previously declared CCHFV ...

In vitro feeding of all life stages of two-host Hyalomma excavatum and Hyalomma scupense and three-host Hyalomma dromedarii ticks [PDF]
AbstractTicks are blood-sucking ectoparasites and can transmit various pathogens of medical and veterinary relevance. The life cycle of ticks can be completed under laboratory conditions on experimental animals, but the artificial feeding of ticks has attracted increased interest as an alternative method.

In vitro feeding of Hyalomma excavatum and Hyalomma marginatum tick species
The rearing of ticks is an important technique for studies aiming to elucidate the course and pathogenesis of tick-borne diseases (TBDs). TBDs caused by protozoans (Theileria, Babesia) and bacteria (Anaplasma/Ehrlichia) impose a serious constraint upon livestock health and production in tropical and sub-tropical regions where the distributions of host,
