A Coxiella mutualist symbiont is essential to the development of rhipicephalus microplus
(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 ... -
Coxiella endosymbiont of rhipicephalus microplus modulates tick physiology with a major impact in blood feeding capacity
(Frontiers Media, 2022-05)In the past decade, metagenomics studies exploring tick microbiota have revealed widespread interactions between bacteria and arthropods, including symbiotic interactions. Functional studies showed that obligate endosymbionts ... -
Transovarial transmission of anaplasma marginale in Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus ticks results in a bottleneck for strain diversity
(MDPI, 2023-08)Anaplasma marginale is an obligate intraerythrocytic bacterium of bovines, responsible for large economic losses worldwide. It is mainly transmitted by Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus ticks and, despite mounting evidence ...
