Seasonal distribution of Borreliae in Ixodes ricinus ticks in the Belgrade region [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2006
Green areas at four localities in the Belgrade region (Ada Ciganlija, Košutnjak, Miljakovac forest, and Mt. Avala) were investigated in 2004. The aim of the research was to clarify the faunistic composition, relative abundance, and population dynamics of

Characterization and manipulation of the bacterial community in the midgut of Ixodes ricinus

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Ticks are obligate hematophagous arthropods transmitting a wide range of pathogens to humans and animals. They also harbor a non-pathogenic microbiota, primarily in the ovaries and the midgut.

Predicting habitat suitability for Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes persulcatus ticks in Finland

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Ticks are responsible for transmitting several notable pathogens worldwide. Finland lies in a zone where two human-biting tick species co-occur: Ixodesricinus and Ixodespersulcatus.

Temporal patterns in Ixodes ricinus microbial communities: an insight into tick-borne microbe interactions

Microbiome, 2021
Ticks transmit pathogens of medical and veterinary importance and are an increasing threat to human and animal health. Assessing disease risk and developing new control strategies requires identifying members of the tick-borne microbiota as well as their

Wild ungulate species differ in their contribution to the transmission of Ixodes ricinus-borne pathogens

Parasites & Vectors, 2021
Several ungulate species are feeding and propagation hosts for the tick Ixodes ricinus as well as hosts to a wide range of zoonotic pathogens. Here, we focus on Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Borrelia burgdorferi (s.l.), two important pathogens for which ...

Winter activity of Ixodes ricinus in Sweden

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Abstract Background In Europe, Ixodes ricinus (Acari: Ixodidae) is the most widespread and abundant tick species, acting as a vector for several microorganisms of medical and veterinary importance. In Northern and Central Europe, the tick has a bimodal activity pattern consisting of a peak in spring to the beginning of ...

Circulation of Babesia Species and Their Exposure to Humans through Ixodes ricinus

Pathogens, 2021
Human babesiosis in Europe has been attributed to infection with Babesia divergens and, to a lesser extent, with Babesia venatorum and Babesia microti, which are all transmitted to humans through a bite of Ixodes ricinus.
