An invasive human commensal and a native marsupial maintain tick populations at the urban fringe
Long‐nosed bandicoots hosted more ticks of all life stages than other small mammals in urban areas of Sydney, Australia. Introduced black rats were more abundant at most sites and therefore important in hosting larval and nymphal ticks and could be managed to control ticks.

We investigated the effects of climate on the abundance and the geographic distribution of ticks at Bundey Bore Station. We found that climate and various aspects of the abundance of ticks and their lizard host accounted for a substantial amount of the variation in the abundance and the geographic distribution of the two species of ticks.

The risk of tick‐borne disease is linked to the distribution, seasonal activity and host associations of vector species, all of which can be informed by surveillance and citizen science The Tick Surveillance Scheme (established since 2005) in the United Kingdom monitors distribution changes in Ixodes ricinus and other native or imported vector species ...

Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction. [PDF]
Tick‐borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide, so knowledge of the diversity of tick viruses has potential health consequences. Through data mining and bioinformatic analyses of more than 37,800 public meta‐genomic and ‐transcriptomic data sets, we found five putative novel Alphatetra‐like viruses, four putative novel Orthomyxo‐like ...

EAACI Molecular Allergology User's Guide 2.0
Abstract Since the discovery of immunoglobulin E (IgE) as a mediator of allergic diseases in 1967, our knowledge about the immunological mechanisms of IgE‐mediated allergies has remarkably increased. In addition to understanding the immune response and clinical symptoms, allergy diagnosis and management depend strongly on the precise identification of ...
