Grass species and climatic season impact on Rhipicephalus microplus temporal abundance in a tropical region

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8950-8962, September 2026.
The interaction between grass species and climatic season shapes the population dynamics of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus. This information highlights the potential of forage species to influence off‐host tick dynamics. Additionally, minimum temperature and minimum relative humidity were the most influential microclimatic predictors of ...

Q Fever in Africa: A Systematic Review of Prevalence, Zoonotic Potential and Disease Burden

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Q fever is widespread across Africa, with livestock as the primary source of human infections. Although some prevalence data exist, its economic burden is still lacking. The findings underscore the need for a One Health approach that integrates surveillance, economic assessment and control to reduce the disease burden.

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

Ecosphere
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
