Acaricidal activity of small molecule antagonists of the tick kinin receptor against Rhipicephalus microplus acaricide-susceptible and resistant strains. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciTwo small molecules, SACC‐0039590 and SACC‐0428788, killed cattle fever tick, R. microplus, susceptible Deutch strain and pyrethroid resistant Arauquita strain larvae. SACC‐0039590 at 1 mM decreased the reproductive parameters of Deutch females. Abstract BACKGROUND Resistance to acaricides underscores the need for tick control alternatives.

Prevalence, Species Diversity, and Risk Factors of Tick Infestation in Cattle From District Peshawar, Pakistan. [PDF]
Vet Med SciThis study documents the prevalence and risk factors of cattle tick infestation in District Peshawar using morphological and molecular identification. Ecological diversity indices reveal moderate tick diversity, while risk factor analysis highlights breed, age, and sex as significant predictors of infestation.

Research advances in Ecuador on use of entomopathogenic fungi for control of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus: the case of Beauveria bassiana sensu lato strain INIAP L3B3 [PDF]
Frontiers in Fungal BiologyEcuador is one of the countries in the world where ticks and tick-borne diseases are major constraints on cattle health and productivity. The intense use of synthetic acaricides to manage tick infestations resulted in widespread acaricide resistance in ...

Efeito do cobalto-60 em fêmeas R.(B.) microplus na postura e na incubação de ovos [PDF]
Pubvet, 2020 This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Co60 on the posture of engorged females of tick R. (B) microplus in the pre-laying phase and on the hatchability of their eggs when submitted to doses from 0 to 400 Gy where it was found that ionizing radiation affected approximately 70% the egg laying weight of these females, that the egg hatching rate of ...
