The bacterium Anaplasma phagocytophilum has for decades been known to cause the
disease tick-borne fever (TBF) in domestic ruminants in Ixodes ricinus-infested areas in …

Anaplasma phagocytophilum persists in nature by cycling between mammals and ticks.
Human infection by the bite of an infected tick leads to a potentially fatal emerging disease …

Ticks transmit a variety of viral, bacterial and protozoal pathogens, which are often zoonotic.
The aim of this study was to identify diverse tick microbiomes, which may contain as-yet …

Few data are available about the presence and distribution of Anaplasma species in cattle in
North African countries. In this study prevalence, co-infections, risk factors and genetic …

Anaplasma phagocytophilum causes a multi-organ non-specific febrile illness referred to as
human granulocytic anaplasmosis. The epidemiologic risk of the pathogen is …

Vector-borne pathogens (VBPs) causing vector-borne diseases (VBDs) can circulate among
humans, domestic animals, and wildlife, with cattle in particular serving as an important …

A nationwide epidemiologic investigation of domestic animal infections has been conducted
in nine provinces and one city during 2007–2010. Serum samples from a total of 707 goats …

Accurate diagnosis of animal and zoonotic diseases, such as granulocytic anaplasmosis, is
crucial to estimate risk during control programs. In this study, 16S rRNA nested PCR and …

The recent emergence of novel tick-borne RNA viruses has complicated the epidemiological
landscape of tick-borne infectious diseases, posing a significant challenge to public health …

A wide range of vertebrate species are competent reservoirs of Anaplasma
phagocytophilum, where the pathogen is maintained in the enzootic cycle and transmitted to …
