The First Study of Borrelia burgdorferi Sensu Lato Persistence in Small Mammals Captured in the Ixodes persulcatus Distribution Area in Western Siberia [PDF]
PathogensBorrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) persistence in reservoir hosts is essential for the maintenance of the spirochaetes in the enzootic cycle. In this study, we investigated the persistence of Siberian B. burgdorferi s.l. strains in naturally infected

On the core bacterial flora of Ixodes persulcatus (Taiga tick). [PDF]
PLoS One, 2017 Ixodes persulcatus is a predominant hard tick species that transmits a wide range of human and animal pathogens. Since bacterial flora of the tick dwelling in the wild always vary according to their hosts and the environment, it is highly desirable that species-associated microbiomes are fully determined by using next-generation sequencing and based on

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2016 The recently shown phenomenon of natural hybridization between Ixodes persulcatus and Ixodes pavlovskyi ticks (Kovalev et al., 2015) stimulated similar studies in the sympatric zones of other tick species. In the present paper, 265 Ixodes ricinus and I. persulcatus ticks from Estonia were subjected to a search for interspecific hybrids based on nuclear

Absence of Francisella tularensis in Finnish Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes persulcatus ticks
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2021 Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica is the causative agent of tularaemia in Europe. Finland is a high-incidence region for tularaemia, with mosquito bites as the most common sources of infection. However, in Central and Western Europe, ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) have been suggested as the main vectors.
