Transstadial Transmission and Replication Kinetics of West Nile Virus Lineage 1 in Laboratory Reared Ixodes ricinus Ticks

Pathogens, 2020
West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne agent that has also been isolated from several tick species. Vector competence of Ixodes ricinus, one of the most common tick species in Europe, has been poorly investigated for WNV to date.

Research paper on abiotic factors and their influence on Ixodes ricinus activity—observations over a two-year period at several tick collection sites in Germany

Parasitology Research, 2020
Tick-borne diseases are a public health issue. To predict vector tick abundance and activity, it is necessary to understand the driving factors for these variables.

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 ...

Comparison of Skin Lesions Caused by Ixodes ricinus Ticks and Lipoptena cervi Deer Keds Infesting Humans in the Natural Environment

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
Background: The territorial expansion and increased population size of haematophagous arthropods (i.e., the castor bean tick Ixodes ricinus (Ixodida: Ixodidae) and the deer ked Lipoptena cervi (Diptera: Hippoboscidae)) has enhanced the risk of human ...

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.

Studying the Circulation of Etiological Agent of Lyme Borreliosis in Stavropol Region

Проблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2008
Using polymerase chain reaction with reverse transcription (RT-PCR) rRNA tick-borne borreliosis (Lyme borreliosis) etiological agent was detected in suspensions of ticks Ixodes ricinus. Infection rate was 7.1 %.
