Non-systemic transmission of tick-borne diseases: a network approach [PDF]
Tick-Borne diseases can be transmitted via non-systemic (NS) transmission. This occurs when tick gets the infection by co-feeding with infected ticks on the same host resulting in a direct pathogen transmission between the vectors, without infecting the ...

We assembled four Cardinium hertigii draft genomes: cEina3 causes cytoplasmic incompatibility, cEhis1 induces parthenogenesis, cEper2 is associated with parthenogenesis, and cEina2 infects asymptomatically. All four strains are closely related and hosted by Encarsia parasitoid wasps, but key differences exist, including their metabolic potential and ...

An eDNA Survey of Plant Biodiversity in a Local Dam Within South Africa's Largest City
Ecological information is needed to establish, implement and monitor such biodiversity management plans. This study employs environmental DNA to provide a good overview of plant community structure in an urban dam in Johannesburg, South Africa. It further reveals a gap in the taxonomic coverage of South African plants on public DNA databases.

Delineating Anaplasma phagocytophilum Ecotypes in Coexisting, Discrete Enzootic Cycles
The emerging tick-borne pathogen Anaplasma phagocytophilum is under increasing scrutiny for the existence of subpopulations that are adapted to different natural cycles. Here, we characterized the diversity of A.

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

Background Ixodes ricinus is the principal vector of Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the ethiological agent of granulocytic anaplasmosis in Europe. Anaplasmosis is an emerging zoonotic disease with a natural enzootic cycle. The reservoir competence of rodents
