Detection and differentiation of sensu lato in ticks collected from sheep and cattle in China [PDF]
Background Lyme disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex is an important endemic zoonosis whose distribution is closely related to the main ixodid tick vectors.

Abstract Many vector‐borne diseases are sensitive to changes in land use and climate; hence, it is important to understand the factors that govern the vector populations. Ixodid ticks, which serve as vectors for multiple diseases, have a slow life cycle compared with many of their hosts.

Isolation, cultivation, and in vitro susceptibility testing of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato: A review [PDF]
Lyme borreliosis is the most common vector-borne disease in the northern hemisphere. The agents of Lyme borreliosis are borrelia, bacteria of the family Spirochaetaceae, which are grouped in Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato species complex.

An Emerging Role for Ticks as Vectors of Tularaemia in Sweden
Tularaemia is a cause of growing concern, spreading to new areas in Sweden and infecting hares and humans. This study reveal that Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica has been isolated from ticks in Sweden for the first time. The bacterium has been detected in ticks collected from both hare and cat.

Impact of co-infections in Lyme disease [PDF]
Lyme disease is one of the most frequent tick-borne diseases worldwide, it can be multi-systemic and insidious, in particular when it shows a chronic course.

Anaplasma phagocytophilum–infected Ticks, Japan
We report Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection of Ixodes persulcatus and I. ovatus ticks in Japan. Unique p44/msp2 paralogs (and/or 16S rRNA genes) were detected in tick tissues, salivary glands, and spleens of experimentally infected mice. These findings

Circulation of four Anaplasma phagocytophilum ecotypes in Europe. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Anaplasma phagocytophilum is the etiological agent of granulocytic anaplasmosis in humans and animals. Wild animals and ticks play key roles in the enzootic cycles of the pathogen. Potential ecotypes of A.

Ehrlichia muris and Anaplasma phagocytophilum DNA were detected using nested PCR among Ixodes persulcatus collected in Novosibirsk, Sverdlovsk and Chelyabinsk regions and in blood samples of small mammals from Novosibirsk and Sverdlovsk re- gions.

The genetic diversity of Borrelia afzelii is not maintained by the diversity of the rodent hosts. [PDF]
Small mammals are essential in the enzootic cycle of many tick-borne pathogens (TBP). To understand their contribution to the genetic diversity of Borrelia afzelii, the most prevalent TBP in questing Ixodes ricinus, we compared the genetic variants of B.

Determination of ticks species is very important for epidemiology and ecology investigations but in some cases the morphological study couldn't be carried out. In this work the PCR system based on species-specific primers to cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (
