Crimean‐Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus Exposure in Horses and Donkeys in Border Livestock Markets of Nigeria

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a tick‐borne zoonotic pathogen of major public health importance in Africa. Although CCHFV exposure has been reported in several livestock species in Nigeria, data on equids remain limited despite their extensive involvement in livestock movement and trade.

The complete mitogenome of Hyalomma anatolicum: novel insights into the phylogenetics of Hyalomma

Parasitology Research
Ticks are obligate blood-sucking ectoparasite and common vector of a wide variety of zoonotic pathogens. In this research, we sequenced and assembled the circular complete mitogenome information of Chinese isolates of Hyalomma anatolicum maintained at the Laboratory. The 14,714 bp mitogenome consists of 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs)
