TL;DR

This study highlights that the control of R. (B.) microplus remains challenging because of resistance-associated mutations in multiple acaricide target genes, which may compromise the efficacy of commonly used acaricides.

Genetic diversity, pyrethroid resistance, and pathogen infection in populations of Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato (Acari: Ixodidae) collected from dogs in Thailand

Brown dog ticks, Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato (tropical lineage), are one of the common ectoparasites infesting dogs in Thailand. Importantly, these ticks could harbor several animal-related and zoonotic pathogens affecting animal health, including Anaplasma spp., Ehrlichia spp., and Rickettsia spp. A wide range...

Metabolic resistance of Anopheles funestus to pyrethroids and organochlorines in Toumbokro, rural Côte d'Ivoire.

Insecticide resistance in malaria vectors threatens control efforts. Anopheles funestus Giles s.l. increasingly contributes to malaria transmission in Côte d'Ivoire especially in central and western regions, yet resistance data remain poorly known. This study assessed the susceptibility of An. funestus s.s. from Toumbo...

Detection of Ivermectin Resistance Status in Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus Ticks Infesting Cattle from Different Agro-climatic Zones of Gujarat, India

Background: Ivermectin is widely used against endo and ectoparasites of cattle, but repeated exposure can select resistant populations of the cattle tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus. Information on the geographical distribution of ivermectin resistance in Gujarat is limited. This study evaluated ivermectin susc...

Molecular evaluation of organophosphate and carbamate resistance in Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius, 1889) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) populations from Türkiye

Chemical control has long been an effective strategy against Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius, 1889) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae); however, insecticide resistance increasingly complicates field management. Although the use of many organophosphate (OP) insecticides has been restricted in Türkiye, some active ingredients, such as p...

Agricultural practices drive multifactorial pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles coluzzii populations from southern Benin

The rapid spread of insecticide resistance threatens the effectiveness of malaria vector control across sub-Saharan Africa. In southern Benin, the respective contributions of agricultural pesticide use and urban vector control interventions to the selection of resistant Anopheles populations remain poorly documented. P...

The GroEL Gene Molecular Marker in the Detection of Pathogens Rickettsia conorii subspecies indica at the Species Level in the Ixodidae Ticks Collected from Domestic Animals in Different Agro-Climatic Regions in Tamil Nadu, India

Background: Indian tick typhus (ITT) is a type of spotted fever caused by intracellular Rickettsial pathogens, specifi­cally Rickettsia conorii subspecies indica, which exhibits unique clinical symptoms in humans compared to other spot­ted fevers. Human cases have been reported from several states based on hospital-bas...
