Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous detection of Anaplasma and Ehrlichia species in ruminants and detection of Ehrlichia ruminantium in Amblyomma variegatum ticks by reverse line blot hybridization
Cornelis P. J. Bekker,Sander de Vos,Amar Taoufik,Olivier Sparagano,Frans Jongejan,Frans Jongejan +5 more
TL;DR: A developed reverse line blot (RLB) assay for simultaneous detection and identification of Anaplasma and Ehrlichia species in domestic ruminants and ticks and shows that E. ruminantium could be detected in adult ticks even if feeding of nymphs was carried out 3.5 years post-infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of haemoparasites in cattle by reverse line blot hybridisation with a note on the distribution of ticks in Sicily
Karla Georges,Guido Ruggero Loria,S Riili,A Greco,Santo Caracappa,Frans Jongejan,Olivier Sparagano,Olivier Sparagano,Olivier Sparagano +8 more
TL;DR: The tick distribution appeared to be seasonal with Hyalomma marginatum as the most frequently observed tick and Boophilus annulatus and Ixodes ricinus as the least frequently observed ticks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Significance and Control of the Poultry Red Mite, Dermanyssus gallinae
TL;DR: It is concluded that significant advances in D. gallinae control are most likely to come through an integrated approach adopting recent research into existing and novel control strategies; this is being combined with improved monitoring and modeling to better inform treatment interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI
