No evidence of Borrelia mayonii in an endemic area for Lyme borreliosis in France
Parasites & Vectors, 2017 Background Borrelia mayonii is currently the latest species belonging to the Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu lato) complex to be discovered. Interestingly it is involved in human pathology causing a high fever.

Natural Transmission of Zoonotic Babesia spp. by Ixodes ricinus Ticks
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009 To determine characteristics of natural transmission of Babesia sp. EU1 and B. divergens by adult Ixodes ricinus ticks, we examined tick salivary gland contents. We found that I.

The peritrophic membrane ofIxodes ricinus [PDF]
Parasitology Research, 1991 A peritrophic membrane was found in all three stages of Ixodes ricinus at no later than 18 h after their placement on rabbits. It was found to remain intact until at least 11, 30 and 10 days after repletion in larvae, nymphs and females, respectively. In blood-feeding I.

Transmission ofBartonella henselaebyIxodes ricinus
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008 Bartonella spp. are facultative intracellular bacteria associated with several emerging diseases in humans and animals. B. henselae causes cat-scratch disease and is increasingly associated with several other syndromes, particularly ocular infections and endocarditis. Cats are the main reservoir for B.

Estimating Ixodes ricinus densities on the landscape scale [PDF]
International Journal of Health Geographics, 2015 Background: The study describes the estimation of the spatial distribution of questing nymphal tick densities by investigating Ixodes ricinus in Southwest Germany as an example. The production of high-resolution maps of questing tick densities is an important key to quantify the risk of tick-borne diseases. Previous I.

Insight into the sialome of the castor bean tick, Ixodes ricinus [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2008 In recent years, there have been several sialome projects revealing transcripts expressed in the salivary glands of ticks, which are important vectors of several human diseases. Here, we focused on the sialome of the European vector of Lyme disease, Ixodes ricinus.In the attempt to describe expressed genes and their dynamics throughout the feeding ...

Absence of Francisella tularensis in Finnish Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes persulcatus ticks
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2021 Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica is the causative agent of tularaemia in Europe. Finland is a high-incidence region for tularaemia, with mosquito bites as the most common sources of infection. However, in Central and Western Europe, ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) have been suggested as the main vectors.
