Transovarial transmission of Borrelia spp., Rickettsia spp. and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in Ixodes ricinus under field conditions extrapolated from DNA detection in questing larvae

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Ixodes ricinus constitutes the main European vector tick for the Lyme borreliosis pathogen Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu lato), the relapsing fever borrelia Borrelia miyamotoi, as well as Anaplasma phagocytophilum and several Rickettsia species.

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.

Evaluation of Disease Causality of Rare Ixodes ricinus-Borne Infections in Europe

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
In Europe, Ixodes ricinus ticks transmit pathogens such as Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). In addition, there is evidence for transmission to humans from I. ricinus of Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Babesia divergens,

Assessment of the risk of contracting Lyme disease in areas with significant human presence Risco de contrair doença de Lyma em áreas com significativa presença humana

open access: yesArquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2008
In order to describe seasonal changes in Lyme diseases risk rate at three localities in Serbia, during the period of 2003-2005, a total of 1542 Ixodes ricinus ticks (493 nymphs, 525 females and 524 males) were examined.

Management Options for Ixodes ricinus-Associated Pathogens: A Review of Prevention Strategies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
Ticks are important human and animal parasites and vectors of many infectious disease agents. Control of tick activity is an effective tool to reduce the risk of contracting tick-transmitted diseases.

Exotic Rickettsiae in Ixodes ricinus: fact or artifact? [PDF]

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2010
Abstract Several pathogenic Rickettsia species can be transmitted via Ixodes ricinus ticks to humans and animals. Surveys of I. ricinus for the presence of Rickettsiae using part of its 16S rRNA gene yield a plethora of new and different Rickettsia sequences.

Pattern of tick aggregation on mice: larger than expected distribution tail enhances the spread of tick-borne pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS Computational Biology 10 (11): e1003931, 2014, 2014
The spread of tick-borne pathogens represents an important threat to human and animal health in many parts of Eurasia. Here, we analysed a 9-year time series of Ixodes ricinus ticks feeding on Apodemus flavicollis mice (main reservoir-competent host for tick-borne encephalitis, TBE) sampled in Trentino (Northern Italy).

The peritrophic membrane ofIxodes ricinus [PDF]

open access: yesParasitology 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.

No evidence of Borrelia mayonii in an endemic area for Lyme borreliosis in France

open access: yesParasites & 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.
