Evaluating the Effectiveness of Forest‐to‐Bog Restoration on Carbon Sequestration, Water Chemistry, and Biodiversity in Irish and British Peatlands

open access: yesWIREs Climate Change, Volume 16, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
A forest‐to‐bog restoration site in Co. Fermanagh, N. Ireland, 4 years after clear‐felling, conifer removal, and cell bunding (surface bunds joined to form watertight cells to retain shallow water and minimize edge effects), shows accelerated Sphagnum growth—exemplifying restoring degraded peatland toward near‐natural conditions—that is, minimally ...

The Immunology of Alpha‐Gal Syndrome: History, Tick Bites, IgE, and Delayed Anaphylaxis to Mammalian Meat

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 332, Issue 1, July 2025.
ABSTRACT The primary features of the alpha‐gal syndrome (AGS) are (i) The IgE ab that are causally related to anaphylaxis with infusions of Cetuximab are specific for galactose alpha‐1,3‐galactose. (ii) In the USA, this IgE ab is induced by bites of the tick Amblyomma americanum. (iii) The anaphylactic reactions to food derived from non‐primate mammals

Do the level of energy reserves, hydration status and Borrelia infection influence walking by Ixodes ricinus (Acari: Ixodidae) ticks? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ixodes ricinus horizontal movement within a humidity gradient and the influence of infection by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) on tick walking were investigated. Nymphs were placed within an arena containing a humidity gradient ranging from 45 to

Positive Molecular Detection of Rickettsia helvetica in Great Tits From Central Poland

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
Great Tits were trapped in central Poland from three different habitats: a suburban forest, an urban park, and green patches near the city center. Ixodes ricinus species and samples of birds blood were collected from birds. Blood samples and ticks were molecularly tested for the presence of Rickettsia. Tick infestation was low at 5.5%.

Deep Sequencing Analysis of the Ixodes ricinus Haemocytome

open access: yesPLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015
Ixodes ricinus is the main tick vector of the microbes that cause Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis in Europe. Pathogens transmitted by ticks have to overcome innate immunity barriers present in tick tissues, including midgut, salivary glands epithelia and the hemocoel.
