Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 11, Page 2159-2177, November 2025.Population genetics reveals how ticks interact with hosts, microbiomes and environments. This review guides researchers in choosing the best tool for the job, weighing cost, resolution, reproducibility and throughput to study tick population structure. Abstract Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting

Acquired resistance to ixodid ticks induced by tick cement antigen
Experimental & Applied Acarology, 1989 Antisera from guinea pigs made resistant to infestation with an ixodid tick of east and central Africa, Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, were used to identify the tick antigens they recognized by immunoblotting. Most of the antigens were found in tick salivary glands and in tick attachment cement. Antisera from R. appendiculatus-resistant guinea pigs also

Transport of ixodid ticks and tick-borne pathogens by migratory birds [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 Birds, particularly passerines, can be parasitized by Ixodid ticks, which may be infected with tick-borne pathogens, like Borrelia spp., Babesia spp., Anaplasma, Rickettsia/Coxiella, and tick-borne encephalitis virus. The prevalence of ticks on birds varies over years, season, locality and different bird species.
