The Genetic Diversity of Rickettsiella Symbionts in Ixodes ricinus Throughout Europe

open access: yesMicrobial Ecology, 2021
Rickettsiella species are bacterial symbionts that are present in a great variety of arthropod species, including ixodid ticks. However, little is known about their genetic diversity and distribution in Ixodes ricinus , as well as their relationship with

AN UPDATE ON THE IXODES RICINUS MICROBIOME [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of microbiology, biotechnology and food sciences, 2019
Ixodes ricinus is vector in the transmission of many important infectious diseases in human and animals. There is still minimal information available on the bacterial agents associated with ticks found in Slovakia. We performed a survey of the bacterial communities associated with Ixodes ricinus collected from forest area near a great city aglomeration.

Comparative Microbiome Analysis of Three Epidemiologically Important Tick Species in Latvia

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
(1) Background: Amplicon-based 16S rRNA profiling is widely used to study whole communities of prokaryotes in many niches. Here, we comparatively examined the microbial composition of three tick species, Ixodes ricinus, Ixodes persulcatus and Dermacentor

The Common Shrew (Sorex araneus): A neglected host of tick-borne infections? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Although the importance of rodents as reservoirs for a number of tick-borne infections is well established, comparatively little is known about the potential role of shrews, despite them occupying similar habitats.

open access: yes, 2020
194. Ixodes ricinus (Linnaeus, 1758). A Palearctic species, all of whose parasitic stages are found on Mammalia (several orders); larvae and nymphs are also commonly recovered from Passeriformes (several families) and Squamata: Lacertidae; larvae have been collected from Squamata: Colubridae (Mendoza-Roldán & Colella 2019). Ixodes ricinus is a very

The Prevalence and Genetic Variants of the CCHF Virus Circulating among Ticks in the Southern Regions of Kazakhstan

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) disease cases are registered annually in endemic regions of Kazakhstan. To study the prevalence of various Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) genotypes, a total of 694 ticks were collected from southern ...

Variable strength of forest stand attributes and weather conditions on the questing activity of Ixodes ricinus ticks over years in managed forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Given the ever-increasing human impact through land use and climate change on the environment, we crucially need to achieve a better understanding of those factors that influence the questing activity of ixodid ticks, a major disease-transmitting vector ...

The specificity of Babesia-tick vector interactions: recent advances and pitfalls in molecular and field studies

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Babesia spp. are protozoan parasites of great medical and veterinary importance, especially in the northern Hemisphere. Ticks are known vectors of Babesia spp., although some Babesia-tick interactions have not been fully elucidated.
