ixodid tick species recovered from domestic dogs in japan.the species of ixodid ticks (acari: ixodidae) recovered from domestic dogs in japan between september to november 2000 and april to june 2001 were identified. a total of 4122 ticks, including 1624 larvae, 1200 nymphs, 1016 females and 282 males were removed from 1221 dogs during these periods. haemaphysalis longicornis (neumann) was the most frequently found (40.3% of dogs), followed by h. flava (neumann) (16.1% of dogs), rhipicephalus sanguineus (latreille) (4.8% of dogs) and ixodes ovatus (neu ...200312680923
detection of the new ehrlichia species closely related to ehrlichia ewingii from haemaphysalis longicornis in yonaguni island, okinawa, japan.we collected a total of 206 haemaphysalis longicornis ticks by flagging in pastures in yonaguni island, okinawa, japan, in april 2008. four of the 206 tick dna samples tested were positive in a polymerase chain reaction (pcr) screening for the 16srrna gene of anaplasmataceae. partial sequences of 4 pcr products were identical to each other. longer sequences of the 16srrna gene were successfully determined in 2 of the 4 tick samples, and the obtained 1,392 and 1,300 bp sequences revealed high sim ...201121712642
detection of rickettsial dna in ixodid ticks recovered from dogs and cats in japan.dna from ticks recovered from 1137 dogs and 133 cats from all over japan were examined for rickettsia infection by citrate synthase gene (glta)-based pcr and partial nucleotide sequencing. a total of 91 dog tick samples and 18 cat tick samples showed a single band of the appropriate size in the nested pcr. sequence analysis was successfully performed on 102 samples. dna of rickettsia japonica or closely related rickettsia spp. strains were detected from 38 ticks in 16 prefectures mainly in weste ...200516397379
