Changing geographic ranges of ticks and tick-borne pathogens: drivers, mechanisms and consequences for pathogen diversity. [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 The geographic ranges of ticks and tick-borne pathogens are changing due to global and local environmental (including climatic) changes. In this review we explore current knowledge of the drivers for changes in the ranges of ticks and tick-borne pathogen

Impact of climate trends on tick-borne pathogen transmission [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2012 Recent advances in climate research together with a better understanding of tick-pathogen interactions, the distribution of ticks and the diagnosis of tick-borne pathogens raise questions about the impact of environmental factors on tick abundance and ...

Distribution and prevalence of ticks and tick-borne pathogens of wild animals in South Africa: A systematic review [PDF]
Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases, 2022 Ticks are significant ectoparasites of animals and humans. Published data indicate that most vectors that transmit livestock and human pathogens in sub-Saharan Africa, are native to the region and originate from wild animals.

The role of companion animals in the environmental circulation of tick-borne bacterial pathogens [PDF]
Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2018 Ticks are known as vectors of a wide range of pathogens of medical and veterinary importance; some of them of zoonotic concern constitute a hazard for the emergence of tick-borne diseases shared between humans and domestic animals and becoming a part of ...

Seasonal Dynamics of Ticks and Tick-Borne Pathogens in Republic of Korea [PDF]
PathogensTick-borne diseases are a public health problem and a significant burden on the livestock industry. The seasonal abundance of ticks and tick-borne pathogens strongly correlates with the prevalence of these diseases.

Interrupted Blood Feeding in Ticks: Causes and Consequences [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2020 Ticks are obligate hematophagous arthropods and act as vectors for a great variety of pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and helminths. Some tick-borne viruses, such as Powassan virus and tick-borne encephalitis virus, are transmissible ...

Why an Integrated Approach to Tick-Borne Pathogens (Bacterial, Viral, and Parasitic) Is Important in the Diagnosis of Clinical Cases [PDF]
Tropical Medicine and Infectious DiseaseTick-borne diseases have emerged as a major global public health problem in recent decades. The increasing incidence and geographical dissemination of these diseases requires the implementation of robust surveillance systems to monitor their prevalence ...

Dynamics of two pathogens in a single tick population [PDF]
Letters in Biomathematics, 2019 A mathematical model for a two-pathogen, one-tick, one-host system is presented and explored. The goal of this model is to determine how long an invading pathogen persists within a tick population in which a resident pathogen is already established.
