ABSTRACT Tick saliva is known to cause immunosuppression and help pathogen transmission. Amblyomma sculptum is a public health concern as a vector of Rickettsia rickettsii. Another close‐related species is Amblyomma cajennense sensu stricto (s.s.). The impact of saliva from these species on murine macrophages remains unclear.

Temporal and spatial heterogeneity in dispersal and demography of a long‐lived philopatric seabird
Abstract Individuals make habitat selection decisions at different moments of their life and in heterogeneous habitats. Understanding the links between environmental changes and demographic patterns during the individuals' life is therefore critical to predict long‐term eco‐evolutionary dynamics and species persistence. However, fitness and persistence

Ornithodoros moubata: Spermateleosis and secretory activity of the sperm [PDF]
Cytological aspects of spermateleosis in the tick Ornithodoros moubata were studied by electron microscopy. During spermateleosis, detachment of the operculum from the outer sheath of the prospermium results from the fusion of the plasma and the cisternal membranes.

Current understanding of lymphoproliferative disease virus in wild turkeys
Lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) is a retrovirus that can cause a spectrum of disease in wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), from subclinical infection to lymphoid tumors. We reviewed the literature to summarize our current understanding of LPDV, including disease presentation, surveillance, impact on fitness, spatiotemporal distribution, and ...
