When Clades Collide: Genomic Admixture in Blacklegged Ticks (Ixodes scapularis) From the Great Plains

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACTIxodes scapularis ticks transmit a number of pathogens important to human health, including Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, the causative agent of Lyme disease. While I. scapularis is found across the Eastern United States, Lyme disease transmission is largely limited to the Northeast and Upper Midwest and is nearly absent in the South ...

Lyme disease vaccine [PDF]

Paediatrics & Child Health, 2000
Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne infection in the United States, with more than 12,000 cases reported annually (1). The disease is characterized by a rash (erythema migrans) and various systemic (nervous, cardiac and musculoskeletal) manifestations; clinical manifestations of Lyme disease were reviewed recently (2). Most cases of Lyme disease

Hypersensitivity to Ticks and Lyme Disease Risk

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
Although residents of Lyme disease–endemic regions describe frequent exposure to ticks, Lyme disease develops in relatively few. To determine whether people who experience cutaneous hypersensitivity against tick bite have fewer episodes of Lyme disease ...

Knowledge, protective behaviours, and perception of Lyme disease in an area of emerging risk: results from a cross-sectional survey of adults in Ottawa, Ontario

BMC Public Health
Background The number of Lyme disease risk areas in Canada is growing. In regions with emerging tick populations, it is important to emphasize peridomestic risk and the importance of protective behaviours in local public health communication.

Woodland expansion and deer management shape tick abundance and Lyme disease hazard

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
The largest land use change in Europe is woodland expansion, through planting and natural regeneration. Unforeseen consequences of this could include changes in environmental hazards, such as exposure to parasites and pathogens.
