Harnessing 50 years of tick population genetics: Choosing the right molecular tool for contemporary research

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 11, Page 2159-2177, November 2025.
Population genetics reveals how ticks interact with hosts, microbiomes and environments. This review guides researchers in choosing the best tool for the job, weighing cost, resolution, reproducibility and throughput to study tick population structure. Abstract Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting

Surveillance of Tick‐Borne Encephalitis Virus—Comparison of Vaccination‐ and Infection‐Induced Seroprevalences in Lower Bavaria, Germany

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is an emerging flavivirus in Europe and Asia, causing severe neurological disease in humans. Recent advances in serological diagnostics, in particular the detection of antibodies against the nonstructural protein 1 (NS1), enable epidemiological research by differentiation of vaccine‐ and infection‐induced ...

Host‐Specificity and Network Structure of Tick Microbiota in Co‐Distributed Species From the Iberian Peninsula

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
We investigate the community composition and structure of microbiota across natural populations of three co‐distributed tick species in the central Iberian Peninsula. Our results revealed a complex and diverse microbiota, while all tick species exhibited a shared core microbiota.

Antigenic properties of Borrelia burgdorferi isolated from Ixodes ovatus and Ixodes persulcatus in Hokkaido, Japan [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1991
Spirochete strains HP3 and HO14, isolated from Ixodes persulcatus and I. ovatus in Hokkaido in 1989, were the first isolates of Borrelia burgdorferi, the etiological agent of Lyme disease, to be recognized in Japan. Antigenic properties of the Japanese strains were compared with those of the strains isolated in the United States (B31 and 297) and ...

Towards tick virome and emerging tick‐borne viruses: Protocols, challenges and perspectives

iMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2025.
Emerging tick‐borne viruses are considered a significant public health threat. The understanding of the tick virome has been revolutionized by high‐throughput meta‐transcriptomic sequencing, and numerous novel pathogens have been unveiled. However, effective data integration and comparative analyses have been hindered by inconsistent research protocols.

Anaplasma Phagocytophilum, a Zoonotic Vector‐Borne Bacterial Species in Rodents and Its Associated Tick Vector: Systematic Review

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
A. phagocytophilum infections have been detected from various rodent hosts and the associated ticks from different sites throughout the globe. Ixodes ticks were the most frequent tick observed in the studies, followed by Dermacentor tick and Haemaphysalis tick species. Apodemus rodent species were frequently observed, followed by Microtus spp.
