Variable strength of forest stand attributes and weather conditions on the questing activity of Ixodes ricinus ticks over years in managed forests [PDF]

, 2013
Given the ever-increasing human impact through land use and climate change on the environment, we crucially need to achieve a better understanding of those factors that influence the questing activity of ixodid ticks, a major disease-transmitting vector ...

Effects of temperature on bacterial microbiome composition in Ixodes scapularis ticks

MicrobiologyOpen, 2018
Ixodes scapularis, the blacklegged deer tick, is the principal vector of Lyme disease in North America. Environmental factors are known to influence regional and seasonal incidence of Lyme disease and possibly the endemicity of the disease to the ...

Tick‐Borne Encephalitis (TBE) Vaccine in the National Immunisation Programme—For Whom, When and Where?

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The incidence of Tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE) cases has increased. The presumed location of transmission of Tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) has been expanding increasingly in the western parts of Europe during the past decade. There has also been an increased incidence of surveillance‐reported TBE cases in southern Sweden and southern ...

How do parasites and predators choose their victim? A trade‐off between quality and vulnerability across antagonistic interactions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From blood‐sucking lice and food‐stealing gulls to pandemic‐inducing viruses and egg‐eating snakes: parasites and predators are ubiquitous in shaping ecology and evolution. Fundamental to these interactions is the way in which parasites and predators choose their victim. Here, I argue that a trade‐off between host quality and vulnerability can

Ixodes undetermined

, 2017
Detection of Ixodes spp. Of 624 individual B. penicillata sampled between 2006 and 2016, 290 (47%) were host to ticcs of the genus Ixodes. Of these, 123 (42%) were host to the new species described below (Table 1). In addition, 268 individuals of sympatric species (166 T. v. hypoleucus, 89 D. geoffroii and 13 I. o.

Complex evolutionary dynamics of massively expanded chemosensory receptor families in an extreme generalist chelicerate herbivore [PDF]

, 2016
While mechanisms to detoxify plant produced, anti-herbivore compounds have been associated with plant host use by herbivores, less is known about the role of chemosensory perception in their life histories.
