Genome Sequence of Alongshan Virus from Ixodes ricinus Ticks Collected in Switzerland
Microbiology Resource Announcements, 2023 Here, we report the detection of an Alongshan virus (ALSV) strain in Switzerland. Next-generation sequencing of homogenates from Ixodes ricinus ticks collected in Canton Grisons, Switzerland, in 2022 yielded a coding-complete ALSV genome.

Vaccination against Bm86 Homologues in Rabbits Does Not Impair Ixodes ricinus Feeding or Oviposition. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Human tick-borne diseases that are transmitted by Ixodes ricinus, such as Lyme borreliosis and tick borne encephalitis, are on the rise in Europe. Diminishing I. ricinus populations in nature can reduce tick exposure to humans, and one way to do so is by

Pathogens transmitted by Ixodes ricinus
Ticks and Tick-Borne DiseasesIxodes ricinus is the most important tick vector in central and western Europe and one of the most researched parasites. However, in the published literature on the tick and the pathogens it transmits, conjecture about specific transmission cycles and ...
