Development and validation of a PCR-RFLP test to identify African Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) ticks.
The cattle tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus has recently invaded West Africa and caused anxiety amongst farmers in Ivory Coast, as livestock production was severely affected. The introduction of this tick species has remained unnoticed for several years, as all the members of this genus are very similar in appearance. To overcome the cumbersome morphological identification of the four c...
متن کاملEffects of destruxin A on Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus ticks (Acari: Ixodidae).
This study evaluated the effects of destruxin A on Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus females, since this toxin is one of the likely causes of high mortality induced by the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae in arthropods. Ticks were immersed or inoculated with different concentrations of destruxin A. Despite the doses applied, there were no deaths or significant alterations in ovi...
متن کاملAcaricide resistance mechanisms in Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus Mecanismos de resistência aos acaricidas em Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus
Acaricide resistance has become widespread in countries where cattle ticks, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, are a problem. Resistance arises through genetic changes in a cattle tick population that causes modifications to the target site, increased metabolism or sequestration of the acaricide, or reduced ability of the acaricide to penetrate through the outer protective layers of the tick’...

Only a small number of tick species are vectors of important economic diseases or toxicosis in sub-Saharan Africa (see Table 1). These are Amblyomma hebraeum, Amblyomma variegatum, Hyalomma dromedarii, Hyalomma truncatum, Ixodes rubicundus, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) decoloratus, Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, Rhipicephalus evertsi evertsi, Rhipicephalus zambe...
متن کاملEffect of Malathion on Reproductive Parameters of Engorged Female Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus Ticks of Punjab Districts, India
The present study was aimed at evaluating effects of malathion on the various reproductive parameters, namely, egg mass weight (EMW), reproductive index (RI), percentage inhibition of oviposition (%IO), and hatchability percentage of eggs of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus (Canestrini 1887) females from 19 districts of Punjab, India. The effect on various parameters was found to be dose dep...
