one particular anaplasma phagocytophilum ecotype infects cattle in the camargue, france.anaplasma phagocytophilum is a zoonotic tick-borne pathogen responsible for granulocytic anaplasmosis, a mild to a severe febrile disease that affects man and several animal species, including cows and horses. in europe, i. ricinus is the only proven vector for this pathogen, but studies suggest that other tick genera and species could be involved in its transmission. our objective was to assess the presence and genetic diversity of a. phagocytophilum in domestic animals and different tick speci ...201728764743
babesia, theileria, and hepatozoon species in ticks infesting animal hosts in romania.babesia spp., theileria spp., and hepatozoon spp. are tick-transmitted apicomplexan parasites that cause several important diseases in animals. to increase current knowledge about the diversity of tick-transmitted pathogens in romania, we investigated the occurrence of babesia spp., theileria spp., and hepatozoon spp. in a wide range of tick species infesting animal hosts. we collected 852 ticks from 10 different animal species from 20 counties in romania. the assessment was based on detection o ...201728676905
temporal and spatial distribution and species diversity of hard ticks (acari: ixodidae) in the eastern region of caspian sea.ticks are important parasites because of their voracious blood-feeding activity, and being as vectors for various agents of diseases in both human and livestock. this study was conducted in a monthly schedule from october 2014 to december 2015, at 45 study sites in three regions bordering the caspian sea, according to the topography including hillside, plain and coastal areas in collecting ticks from the body of sheep. alfa and beta biodiversity indices were calculated and compared between the t ...201627519473
synopsis of the hard ticks (acari: ixodidae) of romania with update on host associations and geographical distribution.the current paper is a synoptic review of the distribution and host associations of the 25 species of hard tick fauna (family ixodidae) in romania. in addition to a full literature survey, original data is presented, based on eight years of occasional or targeted sample collection. the literature data on geographical distribution was transposed digitally to the decimal degree coordinate system. for each species, an updated distribution map is given together with all historical data and new host ...201222544174
