Th e study was a prospective trial, planned to determine the molecular epidemiology of ehrlichiosis in dogs through blood smear
microscopy and Polymerase chain reaction (PCR). A total of 384 cephalic blood samples were collected from domestic (n=288) and stray
dogs (n=96) belonging to varied demographics. Molecular detection of Ehrlichia spp. was c...

The order Rickettsiales in the class Alphaproteobacteria comprises vector-borne pathogens of both medical and veterinary importance. Ticks, as a group, are second only to mosquitoes as vectors of pathogens to humans, playing a critical role in the transmission of rickettsiosis. In the present study, 880 ticks collected from Jinzhai County, Lu'an Ci...
This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of anti-Rickettsia spp. and anti-Ehrlichia canis antibodies, as well as the molecular detection of Babesia vogeli, Ehrlichia spp. and Hepatozoon spp. DNA in dogs from Ji-Paraná municipality in the state of Rondônia, northern Brazil. For this purpose, we analyzed 177 serum and blood samples using indirect...
To describe the presence and distribution of tickborne bacteria and their vectors in Texas, USA, we screened ticks collected from humans during 2008–2014 for Rickettsia, Borrelia, and Ehrlichia spp. Thirteen tick species were identified, and 23% of ticks carried bacterial DNA from at least 1 of the 3 genera tested.
This study presents the molecular detection of Candidatus Rickettsia andeanae and Ehrlichia sp. in Amblyomma pseudoconcolor Aragão, 1908 (Acari: Ixodidae) collected on a large hairy armadillo (Chaetophractus villosus (Desmarest, 1804)). On 12 October 2020, a specimen of C. villosus was found dead on the road in Río Negro province, Argentina. Molecu...
This study used MALDI-TOF MS and molecular tools to identify tick species infesting camels from Tamanrasset in southern Algeria and to investigate their associated microorganisms. Ninety-one adult ticks were collected from nine camels and were morphologically identified as Hyalomma spp., Hyalomma dromedarii, Hyalomma excavatum, Hyalomma impeltatum...
