Migration of Rhipicephalus microplus ticks among cattle

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 2022
Abstract The aim of this work was to quantitatively analyse the magnitude of the migration of Rhipicephalus microplus ticks among cattle under field conditions, in groups of bovines with different stocking rates. The role of this phenomenon in the epidemiology of

Characterization of two Cuban colonies of Rhipicephalus microplus ticks

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2021
Rhipicephalus microplus (Canestrini, 1888) is one of the species with medical and economic relevance that has been reported in the list of Cuban tick species. Some morphological characterizations about the R. microplus species in Cuba have been published; however, molecular studies are lacking. Molecular phylogenetic analyses have grouped R. annulatus,

Effect of Stemona spp. against Rhipicephalus microplus

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2013
Stemona plants have been traditionally used against various insects in Thailand and Southeast Asian countries. The acaricidal efficacy of 9 species of Stemona grown in Thailand was evaluated against dairy cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus using adult immersion test and in vivo evaluation on infested calves. From the ten Stemona root extracts used in

Reprolysin metalloproteases from Ixodes persulcatus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus and Rhipicephalus microplus ticks

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2014
Metalloproteases (MPs) have been considered essential for blood feeding and other physiological functions in several hematophagous animals, including ticks. We report the characterization of MP sequences of three important ticks from Asia, Africa and America: Ixodes persulcatus (Ip-MPs), Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Rs-MPs) and R.
