Finally, it was expected that pairwise relatedness among ticks within nest boxes depends on their developmental stage, because ticks have a single opportunity to disperse with every feeding bout. More specifically, it was expected that, on average, the relatedness of pairs of individuals that have...
Savannah ecosystems extend across tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Continuous herbaceous layers, usually dominated by grasses or sedges, and a discontinuous layer of trees and/or shrubs, as well as a deep seasonality, characterize these ecosystems and their functioning1,2. Humans have...
The prediction outcome (Prediction Y) is a forecast of days in hospital for the year 2013, and is later compared to the actual days in hospital in 2013. The ticks with dates are the borders of each bin. In the sub-plot of the quarterly model, these dates (first day in a month) ...
Effects of climate and climate change on vectors and vector-borne diseases: Ticks are differ- ent. Trends Parasitol 2016; 32(8): 646-56.Ogden NH, Lindsay LR. 2016. Effects of climate and climate change on vectors and vector-borne diseases: ticks are different. Trends Parasitol. 2016;32:...
We also discuss the consequences of this discourse for pedagogical purposes and school development, while also recognizing that there is on different types of disability, which cannot be addressed similarly. The focus here in on cognitive development and time. Time, development, and measure To ...
Hence, tick species with different ecological requirements employ different detachment strategies, even if they infest the same host species (Heylen and Matthysen, 2010). Endophilic ticks remain hidden close to their hosts’ nest or burrow and attach when the host arrives (Salman and Tarrés-Call...

Ixodes ricinus is a vector of microbial pathogens of medical and veterinary importance in Europe. Recently, increasing abundance of ticks has been observed
Ticks that are maintained in the environment by wild animals may quest on people walking along the trails. Assessing the risk of tick bites for people involved in outdoor activities is a further step in mitigating the risk of tick-borne diseases. This work describes the variation of tick ...
Homozygosity of long sequence genotypes are a result of parents transmitting identical haplotypes, which can be used to estimate their auto-zygosity. Therefore, we used high-density SNP Chip data to characterize the auto-zygosity of each breed according to the occurrence and distribution of runs of...
