The ticks Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus and Haemaphysalis longicornis are blood-sucking ectoparasites of bovines, causing serious damages to the livestock production. The main control method for these ticks is based on acaricides. However, the use of vaccines has been studied as a promising control strategy.

Effect of Various Acaricides on Hatchability of Eggs ofRhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus [PDF]
The effect of commonly used acaricides (amitraz, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, fenvalerate, and flumethrin) on the eggs ofRhipicephalus (Boophilus) micropluscollected from Ludhiana, Punjab, was evaluated by egg hatch assay (EHA). The regression graph of probit hatchability and per cent inhibition of hatching (IH%) of eggs was plotted against log values ...

Cloning and molecular analysis of voraxin-α gene of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus [PDF]
To identify suitable targets for development of cross-protective tick vaccine, in silico analysis was attempted and male tick derived molecule, voraxin-α was targeted. The voraxin-α homologue of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus was cloned, sequenced and analyzed employing standard methods.
