...asmosis is an infectious tick-borne disease caused by a rickettsial parasite Anaplasma marginale. This study investigated the prevalence of A. marginale in cattle on different commercial farms in subtropical conditions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). A total of 120 cattle from different farms were randomly sampled and tested for the presence of A. marginale between May to August 2016. The study revealed ...

...is an important zoonotic tick-borne pathogen transmitted by the tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Latrielle) that causes canine monocytic ehrlichiosis (CME) in dogs. We have investigated the prevalence of R. sanguineus and E. canis infection in pet dogs in Wenzhou, China. Serum samples were obtained from animal hospitals were examined for antibodies by commercial rapid in-clinic ELISA kits. Ticks were collected from dogs and molecular detecti...

We estimated and interpreted the frequency of theileriosis in the calf herds in Babylon Province. We carried out the study from July until the end of December 2022 in several regions of Babylon Province. Ninety jugular vein blood samples were collected. The calves ranged from <1 M to &...

...lign: justify;">Tick and tick-borne pathogens are among the major threats to animal health and production causing huge economic losses in the form of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Due to the scarcity of epidemiological data and appropriate diagnostic methods, the study was carried out to detect Anaplasma marginale and Theileria annulata from buffaloes of Sheikhupura, Jhang, and Rawalpindi districts by using duplex PCR. A total of 1,152 blood sa...

...rhagic fever (CCHF, is a tick-borne illness that can cause various symptoms, from non-symptomatic infection to deadly viral hemorrhagic fever. More than 30 nations have reported cases of the disease recently. To provide a general understanding of the virology, etiology, pathophysiology, diagnostic testing, and diagnostics, and antiviral treatment of CCHF, we provide a critical reviewed of the literature. The chemical interactions and life cycle of viruses are ...

The current study was designed to detect, the B. burgdorferi sensu lato in ticks on camels. Two hundred ticks collected (Bhakkar=100, Bahawalpur=100) from camel in Punjab were examined for potential risk factors, morphological identification, and molecular characterization by using polymerase chain reaction targeting 16S rRNA gene ...

...he overall prevalence of tick-borne diseases was 14.74%, with cases of babesiosis, theileriosis and anaplasmosis accounting for 6.45%, 5.06% and 3.23% respectively. The prevalence of blood protozoa was analyzed concerning season, age, sex, breed, and extent of tick infestation. Babesiosis was most prevalent during the rainy season, theileriosis during summer season, and anaplasmosis during winter season. The study revealed that female and crossbred cattle were...

Fortunately, the basics/experience assembled in using EPNs against other arthropods can assist in developing tick biocontrol methods. As EPNs naturally live in/on the soil, where 95% of tick populations infesting livestock are found, EPNs are favorable biocontrol agents of ticks in infested grasslands/pastures. More...
