Comparative Microbiome Analysis of Three Epidemiologically Important Tick Species in Latvia

Microorganisms, 2023
(1) Background: Amplicon-based 16S rRNA profiling is widely used to study whole communities of prokaryotes in many niches. Here, we comparatively examined the microbial composition of three tick species, Ixodes ricinus, Ixodes persulcatus and Dermacentor

Molecular Detection, Epidemiology and Genetic Diversity of Babesia microti Infecting Wild Rodents

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Blood samples from 284 rodents captured across seven districts of Pakistan were screened for Babesia microti using 18S rRNA PCR. Overall prevalence was 12%, with infection detected in Rattus rattus, Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus. Phylogenetic analysis showed close similarity with global isolates.

Preliminary Observations on Ultrastructure of Borreliae in Tissues of Ixodes persulcatus [PDF]

Microbiology and Immunology, 1993
AbstractWe observed Lyme borrelia by electron microscopy in the tissues of the ticks, Ixodes persulcatus, which were indicated positive for borreliae by BSK cultures of their internal organs. Borreliae (0.25 μm in diameter) were found only in the lumen of the midgut.

Unusual MRI features in a case of presumed canine tick‐borne meningoencephalomyelitis

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, August 2026.
Abstract A 7‐year‐old, standard, wire‐haired dachshund presented with quickly progressive multifocal central nervous system signs, which localised to the brainstem and cervical myelopathy, including reduced cervical and thoracic limb muscle tone and withdrawal reflexes. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed bilateral, approximately symmetric, T2‐weighted

Abundance of Ixodes persulcatus ticks in Komi Republic as a function of an air temperature

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2020
The sharp rising incidence of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) in Komi Republic at the North-east of European Russia was recorded last decades. Tick-bite incidence also was grown.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Species Composition and Abundance of Ixodid Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) in the City of Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia, Russia

Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2015
The aim was to study the species composition, abundances and distribution of ixodid ticks in the City of Petrozavodsk. Samples were collected in May–September, 2006–2014 using two methods simultaneously: by flagging from vegetation and by collection from

Citizen Science Tick Observations Serve as an Early Warning System for Tick‐Borne Diseases

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 234-243, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick observation data collected through citizen science is increasingly utilised to map tick‐borne infection risk areas indirectly, that is, based on the rate of tick encounters or occurrence of ticks. However, direct associations between tick observations and Lyme borreliosis (LB) cases have received little attention.
