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.

Ixodes ricinus ticks have a functional association with Midichloria mitochondrii
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 In addition to being vectors of pathogenic bacteria, ticks also harbor intracellular bacteria that associate with ticks over generations, aka symbionts.

Questing Ixodes ricinus ticks and Borrelia spp. in urban green space across Europe: A review
Zoonoses and Public Health, 2022 For more than three decades, it has been recognized that Ixodes ricinus ticks occur in urban green space in Europe and that they harbour multiple pathogens linked to both human and animal diseases. Urban green space use for health and well‐being, climate

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.

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.

Occurrence and Identification of Ixodes ricinus Borne Pathogens in Northeastern Italy
Pathogens, 2021 In Europe, Ixodes ricinus is the main vector for tick-borne pathogens (TBPs), the most common tick species in Italy, particularly represented in pre-alpine and hilly northern areas. From 2011 to 2017, ticks were collected by dragging in Belluno province (

Parasites & Vectors, 2021 Background In Europe, the generalist tick, Ixodes ricinus , is the main vector of several tick-borne pathogens causing diseases in humans and livestock. Understanding how different species of hosts limit the tick population is crucial for management.
