Influence of the biotope on the tick infestation of cattle and on the tick-borne pathogen repertoire of cattle ticks in Ethiopia [PDF]
, 2014 Background: The majority of vector-borne infections occur in the tropics, including Africa, but molecular eco- epidemiological studies are seldom reported from these regions.

Tick-Borne Pathogen – Reversed and Conventional Discovery of Disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Public Health, 2014 Molecular methods have increased the number of known microorganisms associated with ticks significantly. Some of these newly identified microorganisms are readily linked to human disease while others are yet unknown to cause human disease. The face of tick-borne disease discovery has changed with more diseases now being discovered in a "reversed way ...

Meta-transcriptomics for the diversity of tick-borne virus in Nujiang, Yunnan Province
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 Ticks, an arthropod known for transmitting various pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi, pose a perpetual public health concern. A total of 2,570 ticks collected from Nujiang Prefecture in Yunnan Province between 2017 and 2022 were included in ...

Metagenomic profiling of ticks: Identification of novel rickettsial genomes and detection of tick-borne canine parvovirus [PDF]
, 2019 Background: Across the world, ticks act as vectors of human and animal pathogens. Ticks rely on bacterial endosymbionts, which often share close and complex evolutionary links with tick-borne pathogens.

Effective Methods of Estimation of Pathogen Prevalence in Pooled Ticks
Pathogens, 2023 Since tick-borne diseases (TBDs) incidence, both in human and animal populations, is increasing worldwide, there is the need to assess the presence, distribution and prevalence of tick-borne pathogens.

The role of companion animals in the environmental circulation of tick-borne bacterial pathogens
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 ...

Metagenomic-based Surveillance of Pacific Coast tick Dermacentor occidentalis Identifies Two Novel Bunyaviruses and an Emerging Human Ricksettsial Pathogen. [PDF]
, 2017 An increasing number of emerging tick-borne diseases has been reported in the United States since the 1970s. Using metagenomic next generation sequencing, we detected nucleic acid sequences from 2 novel viruses in the family Bunyaviridae and an emerging ...
