Molecular Epidemiology and Phylogeny of and in Sheep and Goats from Southern Punjab, Pakistan.

spp. are responsible for ovine and caprine theileriosis, leading to significant morbidity and mortality in small ruminants. The present study aims to investigate spp.

Molecular evidence of and closely related spp. in hard ticks infesting domestic animals.

Ticks pose significant threats to hosts by transmitting spp., which are grouped into Lyme borreliae, relapsing fever borreliae (RF), and reptiles- and monotremes-associated borreliae. The RF borreliae encompass a group of species predominantly transmitted by soft ticks, but some of its members can also be transmitted by hard ticks.

Molecular Survey of in Ticks Infesting Livestock from Pakistan with Notes on Pathogen Distribution in Palearctic and Oriental Regions.

Ticks are hematophagous ectoparasites that transmit different pathogens such as spp. to domestic and wild animals as well as humans. Genetic characterizations of spp.

and Ticks Infesting Ducks, Domestic Fowls and Bats in Pakistan: First Report on Molecular Survey and Phylogenetic Position of .

Argasid ticks have the vectorial potential for transmitting disease-causing pathogens to avian hosts, resulting in economic losses that may not be fully estimated. species are the responsible agents of borreliosis in poultry, animals and humans. Our previous studies have reported a high prevalence of infesting domestic fowls in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Pakistan.

Molecular Detection of in and : Updated Knowledge on the Epidemiology of Tick-Borne .

Ticks are hematophagous ectoparasites that transmit pathogens to animals and humans. Updated knowledge regarding the global epidemiology of tick-borne is dispersed, and its molecular detection and genetic characterization are missing in Pakistan. The current study objectives were to molecularly detect and genetically characterize species, especially in hard ticks infesting livestock in Pakistan, and to provide updated knowledge regarding their global epidemiology.
