Prevalence and Identification of Livestock Tick by Sex Ratio and Host in Tehran Province [PDF]

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
This study identified tick species infesting livestock and poultry in Tehran Province, revealing a female‐biased sex ratio and sheep as the most infested hosts. Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato was the dominant species. These findings underscore the need for host‐targeted tick control to mitigate disease transmission and economic losses.

Infectious Disease Sensitivity to Climate and Other Driver‐Pressure Changes: Research Effort and Gaps for Lyme Disease and Cryptosporidiosis

GeoHealth, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Climate sensitivity of infectious diseases is discussed in many studies. A quantitative basis for distinguishing and predicting the disease impacts of climate and other environmental and anthropogenic driver‐pressure changes, however, is often lacking. To assess research effort and identify possible key gaps that can guide further research, we

Phylogeography of the blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis) throughout the USA identifies candidate loci for differences in vectorial capacity

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 3133-3149, June 2023., 2023
Abstract The blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis (Journal of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, 1821, 2, 59)) is a vector of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (s.s.) (International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1984, 34, 496), the causative bacterial agent of Lyme disease, part of a slow‐moving epidemic of Lyme borreliosis ...

Possible expansion of Ixodes ricinus in the United Kingdom identified through the Tick Surveillance Scheme between 2013 and 2020

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 96-104, March 2023., 2023
When dividing the United Kingdom (UK) in 20 × 20 km grids, 9.2% of grids reported at least one Ixodes ricinus bite every year since 2013. Most regions in the UK reported a yearly increase in the percentage of grids reporting tick bites since 2013. South and East England reported the highest increase with 5%–6.7% of new grids reporting tick bites each ...
