A comparative laboratory trial evaluating the immediate efficacy of fluralaner, afoxolaner, sarolaner and imidacloprid + permethrin against adult Rhipicephalus sanguineus (sensu lato) ticks attached to dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Variational methods are used for targeting specific correlation effects by tailoring the configuration space. Independent sets of correlation orbitals, embedded in partitioned correlation functions (PCFs), are produced from multiconfiguration Hartree-

Spatial, Temporal, and Host‐Specificity Patterns of Three Genera of Blood Coccidian Parasites in Two Syntopic Mediterranean Lizards

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 69-78, January 2026.
Our results indicated that the three genera of blood parasites found in the two species of lizards studied can exhibit distinct epidemiological patterns across microgeographic and temporal scales. ABSTRACT We investigated the phenological variation of three genera of blood parasites of lizards (Schellackia, Karyolysus, and Lankesterella) using samples ...

Winter tick sharing between ungulates in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and implications for apparent competition

open access: yesEcosphere
Host species heterogeneity can drive parasite dynamics through variation in host competency as well as host abundance. We explored how elk (Cervus canadensis) with apparent subclinical infestations of winter tick (Dermacentor albipictus) may be a cryptic

Signature of Selection Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Related to Climate Adaptation and Production Traits in Lao Native Goats

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 1, Page 152-171, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Detecting selection footprints offers valuable insight into evolutionary processes and the mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity in selected traits. Domestication, natural and artificial selection, and breeding have produced indigenous goats well‐adapted to their local environments, making them crucial genetic resources. Understanding the

Factors associated with diversity, quantity and zoonotic potential of ectoparasites on urban mice and voles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Wild rodents are important hosts for tick larvae but co-infestations with other mites and insects are largely neglected. Small rodents were trapped at four study sites in Berlin, Germany, to quantify their ectoparasite diversity.

Ecological and Epidemiological Consequences of Tick‐Control Interventions in Residential Neighborhoods: A Synthesis of The Tick Project

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Controlling populations of Ixodes ticks has emerged as a core strategy for reducing human exposure to tick‐borne infections. Several means of reducing the size of the tick population using chemical and biological acaricides show promise in field trials and are frequently used commercially in North America and Europe.
