The transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi Chagas, the causative organism of Chagas Disease, is usually accomplished through the agency of the reduviid bug, Panstrongylus megistus Burm. (Triatoma megista). Craig and Faust1 list several other arthropods as vectors of the trypanosome under experimental conditions including several species of Ixodoidea namely,

Mikrobiómy krvsajúcich členovcov z púštnych oblastí Spojených štátov amerických. [PDF]
My diploma thesis aims to understand the content of microbiomes in several North American Triatoma species as the important vectors of Chagas disease. In particular, I attempted to trace sources of bacterial taxa found in their microbiome profiles.

Ornithodoros brasiliensis: morphological studies of larva and adults, life cycle in laboratory conditions, and investigation and diagnosis of Rickettsia spp [PDF]
Ornithodoros brasiliensis Aragão é um carrapato endêmico do Brasil, restrito às regiões serranas e frias do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. É uma espécie bastante agressiva aos humanos, causando febre, muita dor e intensa resposta inflamatória no local da ...

Characterization of Borrelia Turicatae Transmission and Dissemination from the Arthropod Vector [PDF]
Relapsing fever Borrelia are transmitted through saliva of argasid ticks. Given the 10 to 60 minute long bloodmeal, we characterized the rapidity of Borrelia turicatae transmission from their vector Ornithodoros turicata. Infection rates were compared in

Ornithodoros turicata localities generated from USNTC and SCAN reports, literature reviews, and field studies. [PDF]
Localities in which a collection date was not recorded are represented by black circles. Blue, yellow, and red circles represent localities that were collected from 1800–1950, 1950–2000, and 2000-present, respectively.

Ascertaining Differential Use of Cave Habitats by Mammal Species Based on Soft Tick Abundance [PDF]
Ticks are relevant vectors that play crucial roles in zoonotic pathogenic cycles. With a rise in tick-borne diseases (TBD) in North America, it is imperative to identify reservoir hosts where certain TBDs are endemic.

Tick Molecule(s) modulate arthropod innate immunity and mammalian cytokine signaling [PDF]
Soft ticks of the Ornithodoros genus, particularly O. turicata, are key vectors of the human relapsing fever agent, a neglected bacterial disease of public health significance. This dissertation explores two critical aspects of O.
