Ticks are vectors of a wide variety of pathogens that are implicated in mild to severe disease
in humans and other animals. Nonetheless, the full range of tick-borne pathogens is …

Ticks are ectoparasites spread worldwide and are well known as vectors of many viruses of
great importance to human and animal health. However, the viral diversity in ticks is still …

Ticks carry a wide range of known human and animal pathogens and are postulated to carry
others with the potential to cause disease. Here we report a discovery effort wherein …

ABSTRACT A wide range of bacterial pathogens have been identified in ticks, yet the
diversity of viruses in ticks is largely unexplored. In the United States, Amblyomma …

Besides mosquitoes, ticks are regarded as the primary source of vector-borne infectious
diseases. Indeed, a wide variety of severe infectious human diseases, including those …

Hunters are at a higher risk for exposure to zoonotic pathogens due to their close
interactions with wildlife and arthropod vectors. In this study, high throughput sequencing …

Background Across the world, ticks act as vectors of human and animal pathogens. Ticks
rely on bacterial endosymbionts, which often share close and complex evolutionary links …

Focusing on the utility of ticks as xenosurveillance sentinels to expose circulating pathogens
in Kenyan drylands, host-feeding ticks collected from wild ungulates [buffaloes, elephants …
