Harnessing 50 years of tick population genetics: Choosing the right molecular tool for contemporary research

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 11, Page 2159-2177, November 2025.
Population genetics reveals how ticks interact with hosts, microbiomes and environments. This review guides researchers in choosing the best tool for the job, weighing cost, resolution, reproducibility and throughput to study tick population structure. Abstract Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting

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 ...

Ticks on pastures and on two breeds of cattle in the Eastern Cape province, South Africa

Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2011
Many studies on the population dynamics of questing ticks on pastures and of parasitic ticks on cattle have been conducted. Few, however, have attempted to link the two in a single study.

Carryover Effects of Thermal Conditions on Tick Survival, Behavior, and Simulated Detectability

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Recent thermal history affects the abundance and behavior of adult Amblyomma americanum. Thermal responses impacted simulated tick detection through combined effects on movement and mortality. ABSTRACT Carryover effects occur when environmental history of an organism influences its behavior, fitness, and population dynamics.

Potential of entomopathogenic fungi for Glossina austeni control: insights into microbiome alterations and implications on sustainable management of the pest

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1691-1712, October 2025.
Abstract Glossina austeni Newstead (Diptera: Glossinidae) is a competent vector of the trypanosomes causing human African trypanosomiasis and the African animal trypanosomosis. Management of this pest has primarily involved trapping methods, Sterile Insect Technique, and research into vector competence–symbiotic interactions.

Biological compatibility between two temperate lineages of brown dog ticks, Rhipicephalus sanguineus (sensu lato)

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background The brown dog tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus (sensu stricto) is reputed to be the most widespread tick of domestic dogs worldwide and has also been implicated in the transmission of many pathogens to dogs and humans. For more than two centuries,
