Predictive Modelling of Tick Distribution: A Machine Learning Approach to Ixodes ricinus Abundance

open access: yesConcurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The resurgence of tick‐borne diseases necessitates predictive frameworks that integrate both high accuracy and ecological relevance. This study develops a comprehensive machine learning pipeline to forecast the occurrence of Ixodes ricinus, a principal tick vector in Europe, leveraging high‐dimensional climatic, environmental, and land‐use ...

Attachment sites of generalist ticks on birds depend on environmental factors (habitat and season) rather than on tick species

open access: yesTicks and Tick-Borne Diseases
The aim of this investigation was to analyze predilection sites of ticks on avian hosts according to tick species and developmental stages, as well as individual and ecological characters of bird species (i.e., their age, habitat type, seasonality).

Deep Sequencing Analysis of the Ixodes ricinus Haemocytome

open access: yesPLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015
Ixodes ricinus is the main tick vector of the microbes that cause Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis in Europe. Pathogens transmitted by ticks have to overcome innate immunity barriers present in tick tissues, including midgut, salivary glands epithelia and the hemocoel.

Genetic diversity of Salp15 in the Ixodes ricinus complex (Acari: Ixodidae).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Salp15, a 15-kDa tick salivary gland protein, is both essential for ticks to successfully obtain host blood and also facilitates transmission of Lyme borreliosis. To determine whether the Salp15 gene is expressed in Ixodes persulcatus and Ixodes sinensis,

The scutum of the tick, Ixodes ricinus L.

open access: yesParasitology, 1949
It is a common observation that in individual Ixodes ricinus L. ticks, size variations occur; such variation is reflected in the records of early workers (Wheler, 1899; Neumann, 1899: quoted by Nuttall, Warburton, Cooper & Robinson, 1911). The present paper attempts to examine the true specific importance of size variation by basing the study on ...

Seasonal infestation of birds with immature stages of Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes arboricola

open access: yesTicks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2017
This study assessed the parasitization of cavity-nesting birds and ground-nesting/foraging birds with larvae and nymphs of two Ixodes species, Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes arboricola. Totals of 679 (52.3%) I. ricinus and 619 (47.7%) I. arboricola ticks were collected from 15 species of passerine birds which were caught during the nesting and non-nesting ...
