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 ...

Tracking of Borrelia afzelii Transmission from Infected Ixodes ricinus Nymphs to Mice
Quantitative and microscopic tracking of Borrelia afzelii transmission from infected Ixodes ricinus nymphs has shown a transmission cycle different from that of Borrelia burgdorferi and Ixodes scapularis.

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]
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
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
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.
