Anaplasma Phagocytophilum, a Zoonotic Vector‐Borne Bacterial Species in Rodents and Its Associated Tick Vector: Systematic Review

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
A. phagocytophilum infections have been detected from various rodent hosts and the associated ticks from different sites throughout the globe. Ixodes ticks were the most frequent tick observed in the studies, followed by Dermacentor tick and Haemaphysalis tick species. Apodemus rodent species were frequently observed, followed by Microtus spp.

Beware of hitchhiking ticks? Clarifying the variable roles of bird species in tick movement along migratory routes

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 3, May 2025.
Ticks are blood‐feeding parasites which act as major vectors for various pathogenic microorganisms affecting both animal and human health. Hard ticks are known to move passively (i.e. ‘hitchhike') on migratory birds as they transit between breeding and non‐breeding grounds.

Life history traits, habitat characteristics, and phylogeny influence tick infestation probability in tropical wild birds

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 3, May 2025.
Interactions between wild birds and ticks exert significant selective forces, influencing the host's evolution and fitness. Tick infestation rates vary among bird species due to life history and morphology. Understanding tick infestation probability is crucial for conservation efforts, as birds play an important role in the tick life cycle and can ...
