    • A Coxiella mutualist symbiont is essential to the development of rhipicephalus microplus 

      Garcia Guizzo, Melina; Parizi, Luís Fernando; Nunes, Rodrigo Dutra; Schama, Renata; Albano, Rodolpho M.; Tirloni, Lucas; Oldiges, Daiane Patrícia; Pilz Vieira, Ricardo; Cruz Oliveira, Wanderson Henrique; De Souza Leite, Milane; Gonzalez, Sergio Alberto; Farber, Marisa Diana; Martins, Orlando; Da Silva Vaz, Itabajara; Oliveira, Pedro L. (Nature Publishing Group, 2017-12)
      The cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus is a hematophagous ectoparasite that causes important economic losses in livestock. Different species of ticks harbor a symbiont bacterium of the genus Coxiella. It was showed that ...

    • Babesia life cycle – When phylogeny meets biology 

      Jalovecka, Marie; Sojka, Daniel; Ascencio, Mariano E.; Schnittger, Leonhard (Elsevier, 2019-02-04)
      Although Babesia represents an important worldwide veterinary threat and an emerging risk to humans, this parasite has been poorly studied as compared to Plasmodium, its malaria-causing relative. In fact, Babesia employs ...

    • Babesia spp. in ticks and wildlife in different habitat types of Slovakia 

      Hamšíkova, Zuzana; Kazimirová, Mária; Harustiakova, Danka; Mahrikova, Lenka; Slovak, Mirko; Berthová, Lenka; Kocianova, Elena; Schnittger, Leonhard (2016)
      Background: Babesiosis is an emerging and potentially zoonotic disease caused by tick-borne piroplasmids of the Babesia genus. New genetic variants of piroplasmids with unknown associations to vectors and hosts are ...

    • Cysteine proteinase C1A paralog profiles correspond with phylogenetic lineages of pathogenic piroplasmids 

      Ascencio, Mariano; Florin-Christensen, Mónica; Mamoun, Choukri B.; Weir, William; Shiels, Brian; Schnittger, Leonhard (MDPI, 2018-04)
      Piroplasmid parasites comprising of Babesia, Theileria, and Cytauxzoon are transmitted by ticks to farm and pet animals and have a significant impact on livestock industries and animal health in tropical and subtropical ...

    • Evidence of Ehrlichia chaffeensis in Argentina through molecular detection in marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) 

      Guillemi, Eliana Carolina; Orozco, Maria Marcela; Argibay, Hernán Darío; Farber, Marisa Diana (Elsevier, 2019-04)
      Vector-borne pathogens are responsible for serious emerging diseases and have been widely described in wildlife. Ehrlichia chaffeensis causes the zoonotic “monocytic ehrlichiosis” in humans, is transmitted by the tick ...

    • Molecular detection and phylogenetic analysis of Hepatozoon spp. in questing Ixodes ricinus ticks and rodents from Slovakia and Czech Republic 

      Hamšíkova, Zuzana; Silaghi, Cornelia; Rudolf, Ivo; Venclíková, Kristýna; Mahríkova, Lenka; Slovák, Mirko; Mendel, Jan; Blažejová, Hana; Berthová, Lenka; Kocianová, Elena; Hubálek, Zdeněk; Schnittger, Leonhard; Kazimírová, Mária (2016-10)
      By amplification and sequencing of 18S rRNA gene fragments, Hepatozoon spp. DNA was detected in 0.08 % (4/5057) and 0.04 % (1/2473) of questing Ixodes ricinus ticks from Slovakia and Czech Republic, respectively. Hepatozoon ...

    • Resistencia genética a garrapata común del bovino en la raza Criollo Argentino 

      Ortega Masague, Maria Florencia (Asociación Latinoamericana de Producción Animal, 2022-10)
      Sabemos que las regiones ganaderas en los ambientes tropicales y subtropicales están caracterizadas por presentar elevadas temperaturas y alta radiación solar. Además, las fluctuaciones estacionales en la producción de ...
