HGA is prevalent in temperate regions as it has been reported in both animals and humans in Europe, Asia, the United States, and Australia. Bacterial prevalence rates vary by country and by tick species, with rates between < 1% and 20% for I. ricinus in Western Europe and between 1.7% ...
In many parts of western Europe I. hexagonus is second in abundance only to I. ricinus and acts as an important vector of zoonotic TBD's [8], but its sta- tus as a disease vector in Ireland is not known [7]. Ixodes canisuga, the dog tick, which occasionally also feeds on sheep,...

The Australians that do return a positive western blot have usually traveled and as such are presumed to have contracted the infection overseas. In saying that, there are a few that have returned a positive but have not left Australia; these are then usually explained as a false positive, as...
has drawn global attention6. A typical example isHaemaphysalis(Ha.)longicornis, which was originally native to East Asia, spread to Australia, New Zealand, and several Pacific Islands since 19837, and was recently found in the eastern U.S. The expansion ofHa. longicornishas raised public health...
Borreliosis is highly prevalent in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. However, little is known about the presence of Borrelia pathogens in tick species in this region, in addition Borrelia pathogens have not been isolated from domestic animals.

Role of argasid ticks as vectors in China and their associated tick-borne pathogens In China, there are 13 species of argasid ticks, belonging to three genera:Argas(seven species),Carios(four species), andOrnithodoros(two species) [4]. The majority of these are nidicolous, usually residing...
Australia and New Caledonia [25]; until now, all published markers have been developed from the latter tick populations. We were able to improve amplification for three loci by redesigning reverse primers (Table2). In addition to the nine published loci, we added three markers that were ...
