Q fever is a highly infectious disease with worldwide distribution. Its causative agent, the intracellular bacterium Coxiella burnetii, infects variety of vertebrate species, including humans. evolutionary origin remains almost entirely unknown and uncertainty persists regarding identity lifestyle its ancestors. A few tick species were recently found to harbor maternally-inherited Coxiella-like organisms engaged in symbiotic interactions, but their relationships pathogen remain unclear....
Crimean–Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF), a potentially severe zoonotic viral disease causing and manifestations in humans. As the virus (CCHFV) has been detected ticks Spain antibodies against ruminant sera Corsica, it was necessary to know more about situation France. In 2022–2023, CCHFV 155 collected from horses cattle southern
We report the detection of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) in Corsica, France. identified CCHFV African genotype I ticks collected from cattle at 2 different sites southeastern and central-western indicating an established circulation. Healthcare professionals at-risk groups should be alerted to circulation Corsica.
Abstract Background African Swine Fever Virus has devastated more than the half of domestic pig population in Madagascar since its introduction, probably 1997-1998. One hypotheses to explain persistence on island is establishment local Ornithodoros soft ticks, whose presence been reported past from north-western coast Central Highlands. The aim present study was verify such hypothesis by conducting tick examinations three distinct zones production where outbreaks have regularly over decade...
African swine fever (ASF) is a lethal hemorrhagic disease in domestic pigs and wild suids caused by virus (ASFV), which threatens the industry globally. In its native enzootic foci, ASFV naturally circulating between soft ticks of genus Ornithodoros, especially O. moubata group, reservoir suids, such as warthogs (Phacochoerus spp.) that are bitten infected inhabiting their burrows. While ability some Afrotropical to transmit maintain well established, vector status Palearctic tick species...
Current and likely future changes in the geographic distribution of ticks belonging to genus Hyalomma are concern, as these believed be vectors many pathogens responsible for human animal diseases. However, we have observed that there no vector competence experiments, level evidence provided by scientific literature is often not sufficient validate transmission a specific pathogen species. We therefore carried out bibliographical study collate validation parasitic, viral, or bacterial spp....
The impact of landscape fragmentation due to human and climatic mediated factors on the structure a population Glossina palpalis gambiensis Vanderplank (Diptera: Glossinidae) was investigated in Mouhoun river basin, Burkina Faso. Allele frequencies at five microsatellite loci, metric properties based 11 wing landmarks, were compared between four populations. populations originated from one its tributaries. average distance samples 72 km with two most widely spaced being 216 apart. sampling...
The West African trypanosomoses are mostly transmitted by riverine species of tsetse fly. In this study, we estimate the dispersal and population size populations located along Mouhoun river in Burkina Faso where habitats experiencing increasing fragmentation caused human encroachment. Dispersal estimated through direct (mark recapture) indirect (genetic isolation distance) methods appeared consistent with one another. these fragmented landscapes, flies displayed localized, small...
We developed a correlative model at high resolution for predicting the distribution of one main vectors Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV), Hyalomma marginatum, in recently colonised area, namely southern France. About 931 H. marginatum adult ticks were sampled on horses from 2016 to 2019 and 2021 14 French departments, which resulted first detection map large portion national territory. Such updated presence/absence data, as well mean number per examined animal (mean parasitic...
Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is a tick-borne disease caused by Babesia caballi and Theileria equi that potentially emerging in non-endemic countries. We conducted descriptive study to investigate EP prevalence spatial distribution an endemic region: the Camargue Plain of La Crau France. In spring 2015 2016, we carried out sampling at stables (total n = 46) with history horses presenting chronic fever or weight loss. Overall, collected blood from 632 horses, which were also inspected for ticks;...
