The first German map of georeferenced ixodid tick locations
Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background Georeferenced locations of ixodid ticks are required to depict the observed distribution of species. Further, they are used as input data for species distribution models also known as niche models.

Brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato, infestation of susceptible dog hosts is reduced by slow release of semiochemicals from a less susceptible host [PDF]
, 2017 Domestic dog breeds are hosts for the brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato, but infestation levels vary among breeds. Beagles are less susceptible to tick infestations than English cocker spaniels due to enhanced production of 2-hexanone ...

Tick vaccines and the control of tick-borne pathogens [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 Ticks are obligate hematophagous ectoparasites that transmit a wide variety of pathogens to humans and animals. The incidence of tick-borne diseases has increased worldwide in both humans and domestic animals over the past years resulting in greater interest in the study of tick-host-pathogen interactions.

Study scale determines whether wildlife loss protects against or promotes tick-borne disease [PDF]
, 2018 How does wildlife loss affect tick-borne disease risk? To test this question, Titcomb et al. [1] excluded large mammals that typically support large numbers of adult ticks from 1 ha plots, and then quantified the density of questing adult ticks within ...

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017 New tick and tick-borne pathogen control approaches that are both environmentally sustainable and which provide broad protection are urgently needed. Their development, however, will rely on a greater understanding of tick biology, tick-pathogen, and ...
