Role of mustelids in the life-cycle of ixodid ticks and transmission cycles of four tick-borne pathogens

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Elucidating which wildlife species significantly contribute to the maintenance of Ixodes ricinus populations and the enzootic cycles of the pathogens they transmit is imperative in understanding the driving forces behind the emergence of tick ...

Tick‐Borne Encephalitis (TBE) Vaccine in the National Immunisation Programme—For Whom, When and Where?

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 11, Page 2450-2455, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The incidence of Tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE) cases has increased. The presumed location of transmission of Tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) has been expanding increasingly in the western parts of Europe during the past decade. There has also been an increased incidence of surveillance‐reported TBE cases in southern Sweden and southern ...

Cuticular Waxes in Altered Environments and Their Role in Leaf Water Loss Dynamics

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8014-8033, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes undeniably form the primary barrier restricting uncontrolled water loss from leaves, yet the functional consequences of environmentally induced wax modifications for residual (cuticular) transpiration remain a matter of debate. This review summarises current knowledge on how major abiotic stimuli influence foliar cuticular wax ...

Nuclear importin α1 AtIMPA1 regulates stomatal reopening to defend against Pst DC3000 by orchestrating ABA signaling

The Plant Journal, Volume 128, Issue 3, November 2026.
SUMMARY Importin α family proteins serve as essential carriers for transporting specific disease‐resistant proteins into the nucleus, enabling these proteins to function properly. However, whether importin α proteins are involved in plant immunity remains unclear.

Insights into the contribution of multiple factors on Ixodes ricinus abundance across Europe spanning 20 years using different machine learning algorithms

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
The interplay of biotic and abiotic factors driving Ixodes ricinus abundance trends are not fully understood. Machine learning (ML) approaches are being increasingly used to explore this and predict future abundance patterns of this species, however, the

Delineating Anaplasma phagocytophilum Ecotypes in Coexisting, Discrete Enzootic Cycles

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
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.
