The occurrence of the Dermacentor reticulatus tick--its expansion to new areas and possible causes.

The expansion of D. reticulatus into new areas could be the synergistic effect of many favourable factors, as can changes in agricultural land use, environmental protection and the spread of international tourism and trade.

Dominance of Dermacentor reticulatus over Ixodes ricinus (Ixodidae) on livestock, companion animals and wild ruminants in eastern and central Poland

The tick fauna on domestic and livestock animals in two areas endemic for I. ricinus and D. reticulatus is determined and the risk of infestation with different tick species in open and forest areas is compared.

Rickettsiaceae and Anaplasmataceae infections in Ixodes ricinus ticks from urban and natural forested areas of Poland

Zoonotic genetic variants of A. phagocytophilum are widely distributed in the Polish tick population, and although the diversity of tick borne pathogens was higher in natural habitats, zoonotic species/strains were detected only in urban forests.

Molecular screening for Bartonella henselae and Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato co-existence within Ixodes ricinus populations in central and eastern parts of Poland.

The suburban woods of Warsaw and rural forests in Warsaw County characterized the highest prevalence levels of dual infection with investigated tick-borne pathogens, whereas the lowest co-infection rates were recorded in tick populations inhabiting rural forests and forested areas in Korczew-Mogielnica (within the Nadbużański Landscape Park).

Apicomplexan parasites of red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in northeastern Poland

Infected foxes may act as sylvatic reservoirs of these apicomplexan parasites as well as serving as a source of infection for arthropod definitive hosts and vectors.

Wild and farm breeding cervids infections with Anaplasma phagocytophilum.

The main goal of this study was to determine the prevalence of Anaplasma phagocytophilum infections in wild cervids living in north-eastern part of Poland and to find the lowest rate of infection was found in fallow deer (Dama dama) - ony 1.5 percent.

Molecular evidence of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Babesia microti co-infections in Ixodes ricinus ticks in central-eastern region of Poland.

It has been demonstrated that the prevalence of co-infection status was the highest among females of I. ricinus (11 samples, 3.8%), whereas the lowest within tested nymphs (5 samples, 0.9%).

Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection of red foxes (Vulpes vulpes).

The investigation of Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection covered 111 red foxes from the Mazovian Province. Determination was based on PCR amplification of 16S rRNA gene and the portion of msp4 gene…

Zoonotic reservoir of Babesia microti in Poland.

The variation in B. microti prevalence in rodents and ticks is very changeable and determined by season, the interaction with other hemoparasites, host's age and local conditions.

Trypanosoma (Megatrypanum) ornata sp. n., a Parasite of the Eurasian Water Shrew Neomys fodiens (Pennant, 1771)

Infection with the new trypanosome species Trypanosoma ornata sp. n. was detected in water shrews Neomys fodiens examined for presence of blood parasites in September 2003 and 2004 in Bialowieza…
