Species-Specific Bacterial Associations Emerge From Stochastically Assembled Microbiomes in Northeastern American Fireflies. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Many insects harbour microbial communities that can profoundly influence the biology of their host. Yet, the relative contribution of random exposure (i.e., stochastic) events and deterministic ecological factors in shaping these communities remains unclear for most taxa.

Diversity of lice and flea- and lice-borne pathogens in free-ranging dogs in Uzbekistan. [PDF]
Med Vet EntomolLice (Trichodectes canis, Linognathus africanus and Bovicola bovis) and fleas were collected from dogs across five regions of Uzbekistan and subjected to molecular analysis. Molecular screening detected Dipylidium caninum and Bartonella spp. in fleas, while Rickettsia spp. were identified in both fleas and lice.

Rickettsiosis Infections in Sarawak: Epidemiological Insights and Public Health Strategies. [PDF]
Can J Infect Dis Med MicrobiolRickettsiosis infections pose a significant public health concern in Sarawak, Malaysia. Despite their importance, these infections remain poorly recognised, under‐researched and inadequately documented within the context of the Sarawak region. This comprehensive evaluation seeks to address this knowledge gap by providing an in‐depth analysis of ...

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 12, Page 3064-3074, December 2023., 2023 Control of mosquito populations and their vector competence is commonly achieved using symbionts, but efforts are hampered in anophelines by limited compatible symbiotic partners. We establish that the Rickettsiaceae symbiont, Ca. Tisiphia', resides in the ovaries of Anopheles plumbeus and infects >95% of German populations.

Exploring the Niche of Rickettsia montanensis (Rickettsiales: Rickettsiaceae) Infection of the American Dog Tick (Acari: Ixodidae), Using Multiple Species Distribution Model Approaches [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2020 Abstract The American dog tick, Dermacentor variabilis (Say) (Acari: Ixodidae), is a vector for several human disease-causing pathogens such as tularemia, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and the understudied spotted fever group rickettsiae (SFGR) infection caused by Rickettsia montanensis.

Positive associations matter: Microbial relationships drive tick microbiome composition
Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 14, Page 4078-4092, July 2023., 2023 Abstract Untangling how factors such as environment, host, associations among bacterial species and dispersal predict microbial composition is a fundamental challenge. In this study, we use complementary machine‐learning approaches to quantify the relative role of these factors in shaping microbiome variation of the blacklegged tick Ixodes scapularis ...
