Molecular Detection and Phylogeny of Tick-Borne Pathogens in Ticks Collected from Dogs in the Republic of Korea

Abstract: Ticks are important vectors of various pathogens that result in clinical illnesses in humans and domestic and wild animals. Information regarding tick infestations and pathogens transmitted by ticks is important for the identification and prevention of disease. This study was a large-scale investigation of ticks collected from dogs and their associated environments in the Republic of Korea (ROK). It included detecting six prevalent tick-borne pathogens (Anaplasma spp., A. platys, Borrelia spp., Babesia gibsoni… Show more

“…The reason may be due to the fact that the clinical signs appear years after the first inoculation of the pathogen from ticks and after the canine species has traveled to non-endemic countries where this specific ailment might not be included in differential diagnostic lists by clinicians and scientists [ 23 ]. On the basis of different diagnostic methods, the prevalence in the south and east Asia ranges from 0.0% (South Korea) to 86.9% (India) [ 24 , 25 ]. The prevalence percentage of all Ehrlichia spp.…”
