Strategies for the control of Rhipicephalus microplus ticks in a world of conventional acaricide and macrocyclic lactone resistance [PDF]

Parasitology Research, 2018
Infestations with the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus, constitute the most important ectoparasite problem for cattle production in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, resulting in major economic losses. The control of R.

Rhipicephalus Tick: A Contextual Review for Southeast Asia

Pathogens, 2021
Rhipicephalus species are distributed globally with a notifiable presence in Southeast Asia (SEA) within animal and human populations. The Rhipicephalus species are highly adaptive and have established successful coexistence within human dwellings and ...

The Rhipicephalus sanguineus group: updated list of species, geographical distribution, and vector competence

Parasites & Vectors
The Rhipicephalus sanguineus group is an assembly of species morphologically and phylogenetically related to Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu stricto. The taxonomy and systematics of this species group have remained obscure for a long time, but extensive ...

Molecular biology of amitraz resistance in cattle ticks of the genus Rhipicephalus [PDF]

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2018
Amitraz is an important product for the control of cattle ticks around the world. In comparison with other products for the control of ticks, it is quite affordable and it has a rapid knock-down effect.

In Vitro Acaricidal Activity of <i>Croton macrostachyus</i> Leaf and <i>Ricinus communis</i> Seed Extracts Against Cattle-Infesting Ticks (<i>Rhipicephalus</i> spp. and <i>Amblyomma</i> spp.). [PDF]

Vet Med Int
Ticks are major ectoparasites of cattle and vectors of zoonotic and livestock diseases. Reliance on synthetic acaricides like diazinon has led to environmental concerns and rising resistance, prompting the search for ecofriendly alternatives. This in vitro study evaluated the acaricidal activity of Croton macrostachyus, Ricinus communis, and their ...

Prevalence of Ixodid Tick Infestation Among Small Ruminants in Ethiopia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This systematic review and meta‐analysis reveal a high overall prevalence of ixodid tick infestation among sheep and goats across Ethiopia. Significant regional variation was observed, with the highest burden in the eastern parts of the country.

Occurrence of Tick-Borne Pathogens in Rhipicephalus sanguineus Sensu Lato From Domestic Dogs in Kumasi, Ghana. [PDF]

Vet Med Int
Tick‐borne pathogens, transmitted by ticks, infect humans and animals worldwide. The brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato, is a significant vector of a number of pathogens, including Ehrlichia canis, Rickettsia and Anaplasma species. In Ghana, there is limited information on the pathogens carried by Rh. sanguineus s.l.

Prevalence of tick-borne pathogens in Rhipicephalus species infesting domestic animals in Africa: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Acta Tropica, 2023
Rhipicephalus ticks transmit important tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) such as Anaplasma, Babesia, and Theileria spp. which cause major economic losses in livestock production and contribute to emerging zoonotic diseases.

Detection of Multiple Microorganisms in Ruminant Ticks in Senegal Using High-Throughput Microfluidic Real-Time PCR. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Ticks are major vectors of numerous pathogens affecting both livestock and humans. In Senegal, data on the diversity of tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) in ruminant‐associated ticks remain limited. In total, 1703 ticks were collected from goats, sheep, and cattle across three ecological zones of Senegal (Sudanian, Sahelian, and Sudano‐Sahelian).

The "tropical lineage" of the brown dog tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato identified as Rhipicephalus linnaei (Audouin, 1826).

International Journal of Parasitology, 2021
The brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus sanguineus) parasitises dogs. Over the past decade, two distinct lineages have been recognised - R. sanguineus sensu lato "temperate lineage" and R. sanguineus sensu lato "tropical lineage".
